Supplying The World With The Latest A380 News
Well August is upon us, which means the “Airbus Staff” holidays are also here.
The first two weeks of this month are slow weeks for the production line, and there is usually a slowdown in news.
Of course, we’ll still be on the lookout for news and updates during this period, and the production line should be back to its usual self by the third week of August.
Kind Regards,
Oliver Gigacz
Owner/Editor of A380Production
SPECIAL UPDATE
This week we began developing our new site, “A350Production“. Like on A380Production, it will follow the production of each Airbus A350 each frame. At the moment we are looking at a August/September 2011 launch for the main site, with a forum to follow shorty after.
Once we have done a few mock ups and tests, we will be posting a preview on A380Production.com, so stay tuned over the next few months.
If you have any suggestions or questions, please email us at info[at]a380production[dot]com
I would like to apologize to everyone for there being no updates over the past few days. This will most likely to continue over the next couple of weeks, as most of Airbus is on holidays.
All of us here at A380 Production are still on full alert and we will certainly post any news if any should come about.

This week marks the fifth anniversary of the A380′s maiden flight, In light of this, We thought it would be appropriate to provide an overview of the A380 program so far.
By Clicking the Image Below You Will Get a Detailed Production and Delivery Overview of the Airbus A380.
We would love to thank Olivier Loëss for Compiling and Arranging the Production Overview
(A380 Fact: In the first five years Airbus delivered 27 A380s, While Boeing managed to deliver 288 B747s in it’s first five years)
As one convoy finishes another is announced. This time only two weeks apart starting from May 25. The convoy will be one plane not two parts like the last one. Speculations are MSN035 (Korean Air), MSN04 (Emirates) and MSN044 (Lufthansa).
The #6 convoy has been confirmed as MSN030 for Emirates and the spare forward fuselage MSN046 also for Emirates. Photo is below (right click and click view image for a enlarged picture). They are scheduled to be delivered in Q3 2010 being A6-EDJ and A6-EDL.
We have a source saying the next convoy the spare forward fuselage will be MSN046 for Emirates. But yet no source for the full convoy. But we will find out in a few days. Remember to check out our new site A350 Production CLICK HERE
