The 50th Paris Air Show started on June 17, 2013 at the Le Bourget airport near Paris with major orders placed for the Airbus A380 super-jumbo jet and for Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner.
However thunder, lightning and rain put a damper somewhat on the air acrobatics.

The 50th Paris Air Show runs from June 17 to June 23, 2013.
