Brillant Stuff - The problem with Farnborough and Paris is a helo company is one tiny small exhibitor amongst thousands and it costs at least $10K for the stand alone at Paris.
In my opinion helo only shows are much more use to the industry than being part of a massive show like FB or Paris.
In addition Europe has a lot of helo work going on, not sure how it compares to the UK but dont think the comment is right that all the real helo action is in the UK.
Cheers
