In an inventive marketing twist, Kerala's tourism agency shared a humorous social media post featuring a made-up five-star review purportedly from the aircraft itself: “Kerala is such an amazing place, I don’t want to leave. Definitely recommend.” As images of the F-35B circulate on social media, many locals have embraced the jet’s predicament, turning it into a quirky tourist attraction.
The British High Commission confirmed that engineers were dispatched to evaluate the situation and determine next steps for restoring the aircraft to operational status. As the jet awaits its fate, it continues to charm both locals and avid travelers with its unexpected detour into Indian airspace.
With ongoing repairs, the story of the F-35B in Kerala is far from over, and it may remain grounded for longer than anticipated, adding a touch of humor to the region's international narrative.
