Paris Air Show

Gary writes:

Have you actually attended the show?

Yes, on several occasions.

There aren't too many airshows that are air conditioned and indoors. Being
outside is part of flying and working on airplanes.

The air show is worse: no air conditioning, and temperatures comparable to
those of Las Vegas at times, with much higher humidity and 16 hours of
daylight.

Translation: I'm too fat, lazy, and cheap to get off my ass and see one of
the world's largest airshows. Just more excuses.

Yes, on several occasions.

Was this before or after Lindbergh landed in France?

Funny, I don't recall too many deserts in France, especially at a latitude
further north than Switzerland.

My sentiments exactly.

Hmmm... That would make a great slogan for a T-shirt at OSH.

It would. An airplane has a lot of advantages over a super-model type
girlfriend:

Upkeep is less.
In 20 years it still looks like an airplane instead of Rosie O'Donnell.
It isn't going to run out on you for some younger pilot.

And the amount of daylight in the desert southwest US is less?

Las Vegas would welcome the humidity. That would mean a better
chance for rain and a cool breeze, as opposed to dry heat and hot
winds. Right now, we're lucky to have temps at 10pm at night *under*
37C.
