VIDEO: JF-17 practices for Paris in Turkey

Looks as if the Paris Air Show will not be the Chengdu JF-17 Thunder's international airshow flying debut.  Amateur footage from Youtube shows a Pakistani JF-17 performing at Air Show Turkey on Sunday.

For the FlightGlobal team big shows like Paris are like the World Series, Superbowl, World Cup, and Olympics rolled into one.  Paris also provides an opportunity to interact with our readers in new and creative ways.

We have published a special Paris preview edition of iFlight. It tells you what to look out for at the show, and this year's ten 'must see' aircraft. Of the top ten I'm partial to the JF-17, but the 747-8I will be cool, and the Eurocopter X3 is bound to be spectacular.
