Default Paris Air Show

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.
