OT - Airbus A380 parts transport
This link has an article and set of pictures about Airbus A380 parts
being transported to their assembly point in Toulouse. http://www.cnn.com/2012/12/05/travel/airbus-a380-levignac/index.html?iref=obinsite Parts from Hamburg (rear fuselage), Broughton (wings), Saint Nazaire (forward and middle fuselages) and Cadiz (horizontal tailplane) go by ship to Atlantic port Paulliac, by barge up the Garonne River to Langon, then by road to Toulouse. The focus of the article / pictures / video is the every-two-weeks event when the six parts for one plane are hauled through the village of Levignac. -- jiw |
