The afternoon has begun with a showcase of a multitude of different aircraft; from the Airbus A380 (which was noticeable for its surprising quietness despite its impressive size) to the Eurofighter Typhoon (which was fast and unsurprisingly loud)
The variation in aircraft has been matched by the eclectic selection of music. Sitting in the editorial office, we have been treated to the Top Gun instrumental, Land of Hope and Glory and everybody's favourite Country and Western anthem, Sweet Home Alabama.
What's going to come next, who knows?
US Airways is ordereing Airbus. Airbus A400 program is creating military aircraft for the EU. Maybe the order has something to do with the A400, Madrid, and the new Congressman on the intelligence committee and the Madrid Congressional gold medal he provided.
