Looks like it’s made from spare parts slapped together
Biggining of the end of a great project.
You’d have thought that after 18 years building this one they’d have painted it
The most comfortable plane in economy class I’ve ever flown in.
Is 18 years a long time for an aircraft model? Feels really short
If this aircraft was a car I would say it was ‘built’ in Lithuania, by slapping together pieces from other models.
Bon voyage, I will miss you baby.
we will miss you.
Did Airbus ever break even with these?
I landed a Cessna on a little coffee hut in Tullamore
So what aircraft is going to replace the A380?
First time I ever flew on one of these I was convinced we weren’t going fast enough to take off. It was very odd.
What is the next big thing from Airbus?
What is their current flagship?
And every one was sold at a loss. It wasn’t just that they weren’t paying off the R+D, they weren’t paying off the parts and labour to build them.
Memes completely fucked my brain cause I see pepes where the exits are…
Farewell
