Double Airbus delivery for Qatar Airways this week! Its 4th A350 XWB and its 5th A380 will also be on static display at PAS15.
And then there is this funny picture of the Sukhoi SSJ100 and the Bombardier CS100 nose-to-nose:

The B789 has gone viral... with almost 5 million views.
I don't see what's really spectacular to it, we've seen this last year already at Farnborough, and in the past with A340/A380's.

Re: Paris Air Show 2015 (Salon International du Bourget)
Several types have done spectacular things over the years. Boeing didn't do it for quite some time until that QR 788 (was it last year or already some years ago?). So indeed it's not new, but there are hardly such nice videos from so many perspectives of a civil aircraft doing such a display.Flanker2 wrote:The B789 has gone viral... with almost 5 million views.

Boeing also spread it themselves via a press release etc., so easy to have it spread around the world that way.

Only a few weeks after its maiden flight, the Antonov An-178 is present at Le Bourget:

Nothing really special about that 789 demo indeed. Exactly the same as last year.
Besides, its more to do with the angle from which it got filmed than the display itself.
Pretty boarding if you ask me: wake me up if something interesting happens, like an A380NEO order from my airline, Emirates.
