Airbus is a relatively new company in the aviation business, but with several established projects in the sector, and many of these will now be available for visit at the Aeroscopy Museum, located in Toulouse.
Last week Airbus transferred test aircraft of the A320 (F-WWAI), A340-600 (F-WWCA) and A380 (F-WXXL) models to the Aeroscopy Museum, located near the Airbus airport site in Toulouse. Highlight for the A320, which is the first produced by Airbus, the lack of wingtips is notable.
The first ATR 42 (F-WEGA) produced by the company ATR, of which Airbus is a shareholder, and an ATR 72, were other planes transferred together to the Museu Aerologista.
In order to be transported to the museum, the aircraft had to through a narrow road for cars, in a procedure that requires a lot of attention for large aircraft, to avoid any collision or accident.
Previously, the Museum of Air and Space received an Airbus A380, the fourth manufactured in the world (MSN 4), to be exhibited inside the museum's facilities located in Paris-Le Bourget.
Interestingly, at Aeroscopia we can also find two Concordes and several other aircraft, such as the Super Guppy used by Airbus, a Caravelle and other commercial and military aircraft that made history in the world.
The incorporation of the three Airbus planes in the exhibition at the Museu Aerologista will add even more to the history of aviation that the site is currently able to exhibit.
