Flightglobal at Farnborough: the complete package

The Farnborough air show is - excitingly or terrifyingly, depending on where you sit - but a few weeks away and here at Flightglobal Towers we are gearing up for the big event of the year. Farnborough - like Paris in odd years - completely takes over our lives for the week of the show and dominates the agenda for several weeks running up to it. We'll be taking our media hub concept, piloted at Le Bourget in 2009, to the show once again. Instead of our traditional hospitality lounge, our entire team is based in the chalet which is set up as a multimedia operations room. Visitors to the show are welcome to come and have a look at what will be a hive of activity all week, with stories being filed and production going on for Flight Daily News and flightglobal.com, video interviews being conducted and more blogs, tweets and other social media goings on than you can shake a stick at. Organised chaos pretty much sums it up and for those of us involved it's exhausting but brilliant fun. No one else - from our competitors to the big media operators - covers Farnborough like flightglobal.com. If you're at the show, you can pick up our daily from Monday to Thursday, or our one-off show special Flight International which is handed out for free to visitors on Friday. If you can't make it, there is no better place to follow it than flightglobal.com, but if you want to sit back and digest a full round-up of the week, that same issue of Flight International (27 July - 2 August) will carry a 30-page report.
