Default Going to Paris, which Airport?

I might be flying to Paris with my son next week.
Never landed near Paris to go to town (flown past a few times) so I'm not
really familiar with the airports there.

Which one is the typical GA one?
I need AVGAS, and it would be nice if it's easy to get to downtown Paris.




I believe that the main GA airport in Paris is Le Bourget. I've never been
there, but how can you resist? It's where Lindbergh landed! It's about 13
km (straight line) from the heart of Paris

Le Bourget seems to cater mainly to bizjets, but I am sure one of the
several FBOs there will be happy to sell you some extremely expensive avgas.
Here is a link to a page with basic information and a list of FBOs:
