Just returned meself, Monday traffic not great but not that bad Wx Hot ..damn hot basically hotter than a snake's @r$e in a wagon rut...Flight awards in the evening good fun (Algy the Introducer eh?) mind you I did have to eat with a couple of PPrune icons and a Bentley wielding former boss... still can't have everything.

Tuesday traffic worse (1:30 into the show from the other side of Gonesse) Wx hot in the morning then a craking TS at lunchtime loads of flying umbrellas and the roof on the Airbus chalet giving up the ghost... only bit of the flying display I watched was the Su-31 (after the recommendations by big Al, Capt PPRuNe et al) Whoooaaaaaa cool!!!! Went for a ride in the EMB170 (jolly comfy dahn the back)

Yesterday... same old same old (cept it took 2 hours to get into the show) then heading home.

It struck me that the show was flatter than in previous years but there you go
