Oooops

Sorry for that and thanks you for having telling me

I did so much testing to try to align it correctly... and I forgot to check transparency before saving

Placemark corrected in the previous post

I've updated the points near where I live, Broughton factory is next to the airfield, and I moved Mostyn to the port. Corrected and added to initial post folder

Airbus 380 are quadrireactors, i think they re here ..

Toulouse Airport's Terminal is there (at North of Airbus Construction site).

I'm surprised no one has put a marker where the A380 assembly line is actually located at Blagnac Airport. It is at the North of the runway, the main hangar is already built on the google pics and the parkings are in construction.

Here's a view of what it looks like (north/south upside down).



Sorry I just registered here, I don't know yet how to add the google earth link

With a cattle carrier this big, think how many cowboys are now out of work.

(You know that's what it's going to be used for).

Toulouse payed tribute to the A380 for its maiden flight.

See the beautiful overlay

This position isn't the A380 assembly (it's north of this location).
This is the Toulouse delivery centre (aircraft here are A330's and A340's)

Sorry, those aren't A380, but probably A340-200 or A340-500.

A380 Final Assembly Line is about 4 km in the North of this position...on this layer the Final Assembly Line is not fully built.
Now it is fully achieved and in production.
As reminder the first flight of the first A380 happened April, 27th 2005.

Cheers

The double-decker Airbus A380 made its first landing in Asia on Friday, and Airbus officials said Asian airlines that have ordered the superjumbo will be compensated for delivery delays.

Seven airlines in the Asia-Pacific region have ordered a total of 49 A380s, accounting for 31 percent of 159 firm orders so far for the world's largest passenger aircraft - but deliveries have been pushed back six to eight months due to production delays.

The rollout of the plane is now on track, said Charles Champion, Airbus' head of the A380 program, and Airbus is "committed to deliver the first aircraft by the end of 2006" to Singapore Airlines, the first airline to operate the jet.

Singapore Airlines, which has ordered 10 of the jets, has complained about an eight-month delay in delivery to November 2006. Australian Qantas, which has ordered 12 planes, and Malaysia Airlines, which has ordered six planes, are also unhappy with the postponement.

Airbus will compensate airlines for the delays according to contract terms, officials said.
