I've already discussed the Eurofighter low passage in a dedicated post. Here are the pictures I took from both the small dock located to the left of the display area and from the top of the Plinius lido building, slightly right of the previous spot. I was initially cleared to take pictures from one of the organisation's boats but there was slight sea and I had to stay "feet dry".

Spies, F-22s and the Paris Air Show from Technorati
Making the Lockheed Martin F-22 appear at the Paris Air Show can't be easy to pull-off. The show is a marketing opportunity.

However, I do wonder if other motivations may have been involved. A few years ago, there was a
