One of the highlights of the season! The famous La Ferté-Alais airshow takes place this year on the weekend of June 7 and 8, 2025.

Created in 1970 under the name “Fête aéro-folklorique”, the La Ferté-Alais airshow, now known as “Le Temps des Hélices”, is now in its 52nd year, with a poster designed by Romain Hugault, who is no longer a familiar face to aviation and comics fans. The formula is a classic one: two similar days, with two mornings where the public can get up close to aircraft on the ground, chat with pilots and mechanics and enjoy a range of activities (stands, motorcycle and vintage car parades, historical re-enactments, etc.); two afternoons where aircraft, from the most vintage to the most recent, take to the skies of Essonne for five hours, to the rhythm of the themes chosen each year in connection with aeronautics. This year, it’s cinema time!

And for this 2025 edition in a 7th Art version, and therefore by audiovisual work, we’ll find the Caudron G3, the Blériot XI or the Morane H (Les Faucheurs de Marguerite), the Fokker Dr.I Dreidecker Triplan or the Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5 (Ace of Aces), the Boeing-Stearman PT-13D Kaydet (Indiana Jones), the Douglas C-47 B Skytrain (The Longest Day), the Airbus A400M Tactical Display (Mission: Impossible), and more. And let’s not forget the Alpha Jets of the Patrouille de France and a Dassault Flamant MD311. And that’s just the beginning: the list of nominees is still long!

Meeting. Time of the Propellers. June 7 and 8, 2025. Aérodrome de Cerny – La Ferté-Alais, chemin des Fourneaux, 91590 Cerny.
