Funny business to attend to the incessant ballet of aircraft, oversee the flow of travellers, baggage and transport intersecting at all times in a happy charivari, while remaining self anchored to the ground, recorded in his role as Director of airport. Invested in his Office at the shut out all distant travel, Patrice Hardel rarely mounted on a plane. His obsession is to quickly rally her position. Alert the bomb accident, demonstration, failure, strike, delay of construction... mille et un imponderables disrupt its days. Menu, fragile in appearance, the new Director of Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle seems hardly impressionable. Direct Paris-Orly these past seven years has ground it. Reached sixty-three years at the height of his career, he has lived all avatars of Aéroports de Paris, Manager of the two Paris airports.
The weather of January were thus for him as a hazard in addition.

"Known manage", repeats this concrete man, satisfied to have been known to avoid a new night of mess: in January 2003, thousands of passengers had been frozen in the terminal by the snow... Always tangible, the Beauvoir recalls especially the abyssal invoice of the de-icing of runways and evokes its recurrent concern of security.

Directorate of architecture and engineering him will also open a unexpected Dormer on the history. In the 1990s, he went to the Zimbabwe report to colonel Robert Mugabe, "then fréquentable", a proposed airport. Last year, one that was so far the non-Executive Chairman of ADPi, subsidiary of architecture and engineering of the group, made the journey to the Holy City of Karbala, in convoy armoured, with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, for a historic signing... Another memory dear to his heart, the inauguration of CDG 1 in 1974 by Prime Minister Pierre Messmer, on which a protestor tried to throw a grenade plaster, to the greatest fear of the Assembly...
