It never rains, but it does pour.

So much for leaving the English weather behind – it seems to have followed me to France at the start of this weeks biennial air show.

While it lashed down outside, I took comfort from being the first to visit the second Air France Boeing 777 Freighter.

The key message, as echoed by Randy Tinseth last week was reaffirmed by BCA President & CEO Scott Carson, in that the company remains confident of securing and retaining its backlog and that market resilience is what will ultimately fight back and lead to a recovery, perhaps as soon as next year stated Carson in this mornings briefing.

For now, enjoy a taster of some of the 777F images I snapped.

More will be added in due course.

Au revoir!
