When you’re on a commercial jet, the last thing you want is for your pilot to decide to get creative and start doing tricks. At the Paris Air Show, though, with your feet planted firmly on solid earth, seeing a huge jet fly incredibly close to the ground is pretty cool.

The Paris Air Show, a hotbed of international aviation business deals, runs June 15-21.
