Paris Air Show 2007

This week sees the International Paris Air Show at Le Bourget, an event held every other year. As usual some major aircraft order announcements can be expected and there will be extensive coverage in the aerospace media.

In alternate years the focus of the aviation world is on the Farnborough International Airshow, held near London. I attended on a couple of days of the 1986 event.

More recently air shows in Dubai and Singapore have become more important events in the global aviation industry calendar.
