Did not bring along my Nikon D100 and Nikon 17-55mm as it would not have been of much help using it to take those aerobatic displays. So my plan was just to use my Sony Ericsson K810i to shoot anything of interest.
Upon entering the Changi Exhibition Centre, you'd greeted by the integrated armed forces display, where you'd see the Pegasus, Leopard, Apache and the Navy's first interceptor craft.

The made in Singapore Pegasus is the world's first heli-portable 155m howitzer with self-propelled capability.
The Leopard 2A4 replaces the SM-1 light tank that had served the SAF for 48 years.
Then we have, of course, the AH-64D Apache attack helicopter.
In the exhibition hall, you have your usual suspects like ST Electronics, Boeing, Airbus, Honeywell, etc. Not my cup of tea, so I'll skip this and go straight to the static displays.
The 2 F15Cs flew all the way from Kadena Airbase, in Okinawa, Japan. They're from the 44th Fighter Squafron.
The F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet. The B1 stealth bomber is in the background.
Tried the panaroma mode found in my K810i. Didn't turn out quite well.

This one is better. You can see the F/A18, B1 Bomber and the Tanker.

And of course, the humongous Airbus A380.

Didn't get a chance to see the cabin though.
