An aerial overview of the passenger terminal building (PTB), ramp and surrounding buildings at the Bengaluru International Airport. From the left is the airport staff parking, the PTB and the parking area, including the airport hotel which is still under construction. The unique "three in one" Lima taxi way which provides for two narrow-bodies or one wide-body to taxi in parallel can be seen in the ramp. The extent of land given for future expansion is visible all the way to the tree line slight above the centre line of the photo.

Great shot Devesh. I can see that it has changed a lot since I was there last time in late 2005.
In 2005, the ground breaking for the airport had just begun. BIA started operating from 2008. The photo shows the amount of land and the planning for the expansion of the airport in years to come. T2 will come to the left of the existing terminal (as seen in the photo) i.e. the east, where the small VIP terminal is currently, and the staff parking lot.
Wow! Simply amazing! That's a lot of area you've covered in this one picture! But the sad part is, the apron is so empty just when you took this outstanding shot. But anywayz, Congrats for this one of a kind picture from BLR!
