The 2016 Farnborough International Airshow is already looking strong, with exhibit space sales already up by double digits and the Lockheed Martin F-35 and Comac C919 are expected to make their European debuts at the biennial event, show organizer Farnborough International said on Wednesday at the Paris Air Show. Farnborough 2016 will be held next July 11 to 17.

With more than a year remaining, the UK airshow is already 44 percent sold–a 20-percent increase over the same period in the previous show cycle, Farnborough International said. The organizer hopes to reach 50 percent before the Le Bourget show closes on Sunday.
