T plus 3

With the Juno Beach tour over but Astra Girl still hanging out in Paris for a couple of days...

Visit to the Musée de l’Air et de l’Esapce. Since I am on vacation I will limit this mainly to some pictures.
Enjoy.


Space Hall






 





Interwar years










Helicopter Hall 






Concord Hall
- No mentioning, from what I saw, of that horrible accident of Air France 4590 on 25 July 2000 that killed 100 passengers, nine crew and four people on the ground. Shameful in my view as a historian. Those who perished deserve to have their lives commemorated. It does not diminish the technological achievement that the Concord was. -














Ariane 5
Full scale model. 



And a tribute to Canada.
