A380 - Le défi (2e édition)
At the cost of a considerable effort, which is both a feat and a gamble, Airbus has built the largest aircraft in the history of commercial aviation, the A380. A real ocean liner capable of carrying between 550 and 800 passengers and of covering nearly 15 000 km in a single stroke of its wings. It would have made Jules Verne dream.
This aircraft is an important asset for Airbus in its fight against Boeing. Because the American manufacturer has long held its own against all its competitors with the B747, the famous double-deck jumbo jet, the only one of its kind in the long-haul wide-body segment for over 30 years.
At the height of a crisis that its new leaders have barely mastered, the young European company is therefore committing its future to this program, one of the most prestigious in the history of civil aeronautics along with the Concorde. One of the riskiest too, given the bets involved.
Update addendum included.
