Yesterday, Emirates sixteenth A380 (MSN077) performed its first flight.


After a few hours of testing, she returned to Toulouse, and is scheduled to fly to Hamburg next week.

November 2010 saw MSN077 arrive in Toulouse, and just four months later, she is in the air. This is sign that the production line is speeding up very, very nicely.
