Paris Air Show

organizers and the considerable difficulty in even reaching the show"

Yes, on several occasions.

Was this before or after Lindbergh landed in France?

The Paris Air Show postdates Lindbergh's flight.

forget about CNN (Europe). There are far more better news outlets than
CNN (they got worse and came down to a FOX niveau), BBC for example.

I probably wouldn't spend the money for the Paris Air Show even when
living in Paris .. well, maybe once to have seen it personally. I have
no big interest in the big iron and absolutely no interest at all in
all the military stuff.

So it would be best to reflect sometimes before bashing around.



Uh, yeh, right.

The show is interesting but with the increasing heat of recent years
it can be physically exhausting. There are only a handful of
overloaded portable toilets, and virtually nothing to drink to
rehydrate, and the airfield of course is just an open area in the
blazing sun that can surpass 100 degrees F during the day.

If you can brave all that, plus the extreme security paranoia of the
organizers and the considerable difficulty in even reaching the show,
the planes are pretty interesting.



Yeah, you're a real aviator, you are.

I keep reading about the little French girl, whomever she may be, but I
really like these.
