There was a veritable cornucopia of news coming out of Paris despite the notably slowed pace of aircraft order. Mary Kirby (Runway Girl) and I sat down together at the end of yesterday to discuss day one of the Paris Air Show. We were a bit punchy at the end of the very long first day, so you’ll have to forgive our obvious fatigue.

I’ll have a solid list of the day’s big stories and interviews shortly.

***Editor’s Note: The GE reference about first flight was about the GEnx. It will fly during the 3rd quarter with 787 first flight still set for June.
