The Airbus A380

The Biggest Airplane

The biggest airliner, even bigger than a  Boeing 747 made by E.U manufacturer Airbus.

This article will tell you all about an A380 Airbus how it was designed for and created to our comfort. The Boeing 747 was the Queen of the Skies until 2005 that all changed when Airbus created the Airbus A3xx and challenged Boeing’s monopoly in the huge-aircraft market.

The  upper deck extends past the fuselage and makes it feel like a wide body aircraft. Four engines give it 75,000 lbs of thrust by RR Trent 900 engines. After an almost accident in Singapore in 2010 (The only accident for an A380 so far:)), Airbus  made a lot of improvements. Today it’s used by Emirates, Air France, Singapore, Lufthansa, British, Thai, Qantas, Etihad, Qatar, Korean, Asiana and others.

It took lot’s of time just to make the plane be safe and comfortable before it got to tons of Airlines all around the world. it’s a real engineering marvel, and without Airbus and the 747 we wouldn’t have 2x decker planes in our lives ever. It’s really luxurious and I’m really speechless about this because it’s so amazing.
