Marc's Public Blog - Flying

This time, I went during professional days, which meant fewer crowds (good), but a much lesser airshow (not as great, but oh well):

the line to get in was thankfully fast as everyone was pre-paid

I then went to see expo halls:

chinese jet

cool aircraft using helium for lift and hydrogen for propulsion

NGF concept

VTOL aircraft:

quadplane (multirotor for takeoff and conversion to plane in flight)

another concept

Drones:

tethered drone with unlimited runtime

It was air and space:

A fair amount of planes outside too:

next generation fighter

I went back to see the old planes that are there all year:

747 2nd floor

So, there was a small airshow, I only watched part of it given limited time and that it was a bit weak. I heard it was better during the weekend when the general public was allowed. I somehow made a few wrong turns and ended up at the Airbus private viewing lounge:

And that was it for the Bourget expo. I didn't quite have the time to see everything in one day, but saw most of it, worth the visit given that I was already there :)
