On some 380 contributions posted to this day, the proposal on the rocker figure in the column “heritage”. For its authors, “it may seem grotesque but it is time to pay tribute to Johnny Hallyday”. “Where better than a national airport to remind the French, their love for Johnny. And who better to inspire the joy of travel?, they add. With Roissy-Charles de Gaulle (CDG), France paid homage to him who was able to bring together politically the French. With Orly and Johnny Hallyday (OJH), France will pay tribute to the one who continues to bring them together in the love of the music and of rock’n’roll.” Has the listen, Orly completing big jobs, it’s now or never to change the name.

It is a just return of things and the opportunity to revive this airport a little bit off”, packs a user. “If that’s humor, bravo! Otherwise, it is not appropriate. I must be able to list several hundred names of personalities who would deserve it more this honor,” replies another. “A big man for a small airport it is still the minimum that we can do in this time of Gillet and yellow of the great debates,” says a third. And in the first twenty votes cast, ten are in favour of the measure, and ten opposed.
