Number 270 was the last 8380 to be built thats when the series was unveiled 15 years ago it marked a revolution the worlds biggest passenger plane now its been discontinued. I think that people would have loved to to have the sec raf you know being produce for a longer period of time anyway again i think everybody is very proud about the aircraft and what it means to help us to know how the skills that we developed along those is very important then to pave the way for the future innovation like. For example. The a 380. 00 is so extravagant and enormous its positively although inspiring. People have grown fond of it even if they dont work for every us. I think its a its a mixed feeling between a bit of sadness. But also a lot of a lot of pride. And again im very proud to have been part of this journey i think that you felt the passion of all the people i think that help us would not be a bus without a future yeah even worldwide i mean anybody is able to recognize the 380 and this is not a given for any aircraft flying around the work. Be a 380 was designed to hold as many as 850 passengers on its 2 decks but times have changed and the lines. No longer aim to cram as many people as possible into huge planes smaller fuel efficient models the call for now. The end of the road for the a 380 came too soon for us the Development Costs with huge and can hardly have been offset by sales at the same time the pandemic is devastating the industry a large part of the global commercial air fleet remains grounded airlines that were doing well and now facing bankruptcy the german state had to rescue loved tenser with a 9000000000 euro bailout orders for new planes have been cancelled or have failed to materialize. Production abas has been cut back sharply thousands of workers are working reduced hours. Id have to look beautiful thought but of course weve been hit hard as a manufacturer and we have to respond appropriately weve studied past disruptive events such as 911 and sars they all had a negative impact but not as great as the pandemic ause we have to find a way to emerge from the crisis swiftly rise up from this low point given the enormity of the crisis were talking about years not months we wont get back to where we were until at least 202035 there will be nor return to normality before that. You know maturity defaults that works on etc go here and clear corporate europe with what could of course. Ever since pinning its hopes on its a 350 series introduced in 2015 its quiet fuel efficient and state of the art. Piloted this one on its 1st flight at a bus in toulouse his airline loved one so ordered it some years ago and this was the acceptance flight bang in the middle of the deepest crisis end of tenses history.

Its a limb or of hope for the airline and for the manufacturer of us pilot thomasville hence says every plane gets built help secure jobs. That once is listed its important for us to maintain production albeit at a lower level so its a good feeling and a positive sign that we continue to deliver such big planes it also shows that lufthansa and the Aviation Industry and air bus are confident that things will take off again even if the steps are small and slow it doesnt with all threats be it opens your lungs on this but this is optimism is all well and good.

Tens of thousands of jobs on the chopping block thats been one of the results of the dramatic decline in International Air travel giant fields of unused aircraft have become an eye catching indicator of the problem here are some more facts to illustrate the full extent of the industrys crisis.
