Underscoring the universal appeal of the Farnborough International 2008 airshow, the organizers have again dedicated space for specialty sectors or disciplines, with areas reserved for business aircraft manufacturers and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). It also is featuring International Youth Day on Friday, as the show week ends (see box).

The business aircraft community is very important to Farnborough, according to the show’s head of marketing, Philippa Ewart, who reported that the Business Aircraft Park (BAP) facilitated some $550 million in sales at the 2006 event.
