Conference Logo 59th Annual Conference of Indian Society of Aerospace medicine at Institute of Aerospace Medicine Bangalore, India 20 to 21 November 2020 Institute of Aerospace Medicine Indian Air Force A warm welcome to all the participants Conference Logo Designed and conceptualised by Wg Cdr AVK Raju Logo Description 1. The theme of the 59th Annual Conference of the Indian Society of Aerospace Medicine (ISAM) is ‘Extraordinary Times: Changing Aeromedical Paradigms’. 2. Due to the recent pandemic, the Aviation environment has witnessed sea changes in its role, capacities, reach, and challenges. On one extreme, the traditional Commercial aviation has suffered significantly, whereas, on the other hand, aviation capacities have been used maximally to bring back stranded passengers and to maintain critical medical supply chains. Public health activities in aviation sphere, such as passenger screening at airports, aircraft disinfection, implementing social distancing norms etc. have been enhanced. Military aviation, as per the need of the hour, has had to adapt significantly towards force protection and maintenance of operational capabilities by prevention of infection, increased synthetic flights etc. Rescheduling of Space Flights has had an effect on space crew training and preparedness. These testing times have brought out new processes, practices, innovations and adaptations in aviation and aerospace domains, that need to be scrutinized through the aeromedical spectrum. The changed way of life and operational practices need to be deliberated to publicize the changes, comprehensively understand them and optimize the solutions for future. 3. The design of the logo for the conference is in consonance with the theme of the Conference, “Extraordinary Times: Changing Aeromedical Paradigms”. Pandemic due to COVID-19 is an extraordinary situation which has had adverse effect on aviation. It demanded novel and out of the box solutions for the resurrection of the industry and ensuring safe flying. 4. Description of the Conference logo with its individual components is as under: - (a) Centre of the logo is a ‘triangle’ signifying a Prism which can split invisible light into bright and colorful array of colours (VIBGYOR). (b) Left of the logo is a ‘Golden Arrow’ which represents the light rays entering the Prism. This beam signifies the myriad of challenges and problems that the Aviation Industry is facing due to the Pandemic. (c) At the bottom on the triangle is ‘image of a microorganism’ which represents COVID-19. (d) Centre of the triangle is image of a ‘Bulb’ and signifies novel ideas needed to tackle the problems due to novel virus. (e) Top of the triangle has an ‘aircraft’ which signifies Aviation which bore the maximum brunt of the pandemic. (f) Bright and colourful array of colours (VIBGYOR) emerging from the triangle represents the viable solutions to the problem. 5. The logo in totality conveys that the unique and unprecedented challenges faced by the aviation environment which require innovative thinking coupled with bright ideas and diligent deliberation, to come out with suitably matching solutions which will facilitate, promote and sustain safe flying operations.

  • Air Marshal Subroto Mukerjee Memorial Oration
    AIR MARSHAL SUBROTO MUKERJEE MEMORIAL ORATION Air Marshal Subroto Mukerjee, OBE Air Marshal Subroto Mukerjee OBE (05 Mar 1911- 08 Nov 1960) lived a life of determination, dedication and total commitment to the cause of the service that he guided from its inception until its transformation into the Air Arm of independent India. In the early 1930’s, when the British government in India could no longer ignore the growing demands of the Indian people for greater representation in the higher ranks of the defence services, it grudgingly began the process of ‘Indianisation’ of the services. As a result, the Indian Air Force (IAF) came into being on 08 October 1932. While the older services were marked for partial Indianisation, the IAF became the first truly Indian service, as only Indians could be granted commission or enrolled in its ranks. In those early days, a career in the Air Force was an uncharted path for Indians, made all the more difficult by the prevailing discriminatory and obstructive mindset of the majority of the British in India who were extremely skeptical of the ability of the ‘natives’ to fly military aeroplanes. Air Marshal Subroto Mukerjee was one of the six Indians selected for training as pilots at the RAF College, Cranwell. The date of commission of this small pioneering band coincided with the date of formation of the Indian Air Force. In July 1938, he was put in command of 'B' Flight of the No.1 IAF Squadron in the rank of Flying Officer. He became the first Indian Officer to command a Squadron when he took over No.1 on 16 March 1939.

  • 11Th Subroto Mukherjee Seminar Rapporteur's Report
    11TH SUBROTO MUKHERJEE SEMINAR RAPPORTEUR’S REPORT “THE CHALLENGE OF AIR POWER” November 11-12, 2014 Day 1: November 11, 2014 INAUGURAL SESSION Welcome Remarks: Air Marshal Vinod Patney SYSM PVSM AVSM VrC (Retd) (Director General, CAPS) Air Marshal Patney, who had the distinction of being the Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief of two operational Commands of the Indian Air Force and Commander of the Kargil Air Operations, delivered the welcome address for the 11th Subroto Mukerjee Seminar conducted at Subroto Park on November 11-12, 2014. He used this seminar as an opportunity to congratulate the IAF and its leadership for the sterling work during “Operation Megh Rahat” to ameliorate the sufferings in the recent floods in Jammu and Kashmir. In his opening remarks, he reminded all present that it was 96 years ago to this day that the First World War came to an end. World War-I witnessed the operational birth of Air Power when for the first time, aircraft were used for air reconnaissance. The classic elements of Air Power, which came to the fore then, remain valid even today. Air Marshal Patney observed that the change over time had been in terms of a large increase in the spectrum of operations and that Air Power must endeavour to gain in capability and potential which matches this large expanse in operations. He further stressed that an increase in the capability of Air Power would allow an increased use of Air Power, and in that regard the IAF is on the right track. Air Power was described as an asset that will enlarge the options which are available for prosecution of war, and thus all these factors highlight the dynamic nature of Aerospace Power study, which needs to be looked at with increasing importance.
