Paris Le Bourget Airshow

Paris Air Show is one of the biggest airshows in the world. It is in Le Bourget airport, in the north of Paris and close to Paris Roissy CDG. The first one was in 1909, and they are every two years, in June. It lasts a week, with 4 days for profesionals, and the 3 last days publics. In 2005, there was the first public demonstration of the A380, and in 2013, there was the first appearance in public of the A350XWB. It made a low pass, during its 3rd flight ever, and returned to Toulouse.
Now I let you watch a bit of this beautiful airshow, in photos and videos.
