This morning (Thursday 19th July) will see the inaugural flight of the newest Airbus transporter, the Beluga XL. Designed to transport aeroplane parts from one Airbus site to other European sites, the Beluga XL can carry a pair of wings for the A350 from the manufacture site in say Spain to the assembly plant in Blagnac.
The plane has a distinctive livery, with a dolphin like "face and smile", chosen by the company's personnel.
The flight is due to depart Blagnac at about 10.30am and given the clear skies it could be visible from our region - though as yet no route details have been published
