The International Paris Air Show is organised by the SIAE, a subsidiary of GIFAS, the French Aerospace Industries Association.
This event, over a hundred years old, is the largest and longest-running aerospace trade show in the world. Since its launch, the Show has been at the very heart of developments in the global aerospace market, for which it has become the most important meeting place over the years.
Open to professionals and the general public alike, it inspires a large number of vocations.
The 51st show took place at the Le Bourget Parc des Expositions (from 15 to 21 June 2015), and once again brought together all the players in this global industry around the latest technological innovations. The first four days of the Show were reserved for trade visitors, followed by three days open to the general public.
