Down below oh okay I have to increase my height though where’s the actual Tower right in front of us where here so we have the airfield on the right and uh you will also see the canal and the sh vers and we will have the castle ver on the left

Side right ready for landing number traff right definitely have a nice view it’s Beautiful going to he’s going to pretend L but he’s going to be like haha got you not lending final right going around fin right going around uh report exit be local flight like you have the sh the on the right so it’s really the cast here on the right Yeah the view in Paris is quite incredible already Yeah and here you will have the AR uh a and all the trains which are going to noraly they’re all going here so it’s a huge uh train station which which station is this it’s station AER are you fine feeling quite well enjoying though actually Paris is a very very complicated a space so I’m it’s the first time I actually do it that way uh it’s not been the first time that I went here but it was like straight line up to

The Airfield yeah it’s just going a little bit around and uh the issue is uh because of the high the altitude the locations Etc it’s getting a really uh it’s stressing you have to keep working let’s say that way this is a beautiful part of the set yeah exactly so this is the S you will see the address it’s the motorway used to if you to want to go to the Normandy trille Etc it’s really that motor below you will take hope you’re enjoying yeah now I’m just taking it all in what are the tall things the two the

Two ones don’t remember if it’s a cold power plant or fuel power plant but it’s a the commissioned one right there is actually the sh which one oh yeah what we had today was really the closest we could get from Paris you can see it very well yeah

Today was actually very nice it was actually a very nice weather here today that’s true uh very enjoyable I will leavey Swit with frequency now and the advice there is between seven and eight aircraft over to so it’s your first time at as well Julia yeah like the only time

I did it I uh I wasn’t paying attention because it was too long ago was l so you see you had the water tower be below there you have the satellite dish in front so to is closed all day there’s no Tower yeah they seem to have some difficulties finding some uh ATC

So good welcome at T airport we hope you enjoyed your flight with J Airlines great Airlines five stars you had a smooth flight andard this dr40 that was perfect typical French aircraft you can directly drive inside or no no that would be nice but no

Overflying Paris in a VFR private plane like a Cessna (here the very typical french DR400) is impossible. IFR actually as well (but almost). That does not mean you can get actually close to France’s most important city, and get a breathtaking view!
I brought a student pilot friend and her friend to do a western Paris round trip, to see the Chateau de Versailles, the Chateau de St Germain en Laye, and fly right at the border of Paris restricted airspace.
You might have seen the TV show Lupin on Netflix. We also flew above the Chateau de Thoiry you can see in season 2 !

Hoping you enjoy this little video 😁

Thanks to everyone who took some footage for me 👌

Music : TBD

  1. Sympa cette vidéo, j’ai aussi passé mon PPL à LFPN, en revanche je ne connaissais pas cet avion français le “DR forty”, à mon époque c’était des DR400 😉
