#Airbus #BelugaXL #TakeOff
"The BelugaXL was launched in November 2014 to address the transport and ramp-up capacity requirements for Airbus beyond 2019. Derived from the freighter version of Airbus’ A330-200 jetliner, the BelugaXL is six metres longer, one metre wider and has a payload lifting capacity four-tonnes-greater than the current Beluga A300-600ST. To be operated by the Airbus Transport International (ATI) subsidiary, the fleet of five BelugaXLs will take over transporting complete sections of Airbus aircraft among the company’s production sites around Europe and to final assembly lines in France, Germany and Spain.
Airbus' no. 1 BelugaXL - whose livery features beluga whale-inspired eyes and an enthusiastic grin - accelerates down the runway at France’s Toulouse-Blagnac Airport before lifting off on its maiden flight, performed 19 July 2018. The livery - making it look like a Beluga Whale - was one of six choices submitted to Airbus employees through a poll where 20,000 people participated. With 40% votes in favour, the smiley livery won.
The BelugaXL’s maiden flight - which began and concluded at Toulouse-Blagnac Airport on 19 July 2018 - initiated a certification campaign that will lead to this next-generation oversize airlifter’s service entry in 2019. The first of five BelugaXL aircraft to fly has landed at Toulouse-Blagnac, France at 14:41 hrs local time after successfully completing its first flight lasting four hours and 11 minutes. The crew in the cockpit on board this flight comprised: Captain Christophe Cail, Co-Pilot Bernardo Saez-Benito Hernandez and Test-Flight Engineer Jean Michel Pin. Meanwhile, monitoring the aircraft systems and performance in real-time at the flight-test-engineer’s (FTE) station were Laurent Lapierre and Philippe Foucault. Following the first flight, the BelugaXL will undergo some 600 hours of flight test over 10 months to achieve Type Certification and entry into service later in 2019."

Astounding aircraft, it can fly with just 2 engines at its size and form and it doesn't have even have additional landing gear. Honestly I'm surprised it can fly at all.
First time i saw this, I couldn't believe this thing can fly.
Yea me too, all the way back in the mid to late 1960's
My favourite aircraft.
I was privileged to see one in flight when I was travelling on a coach on the M56 last week.
I live not far from broughton where they make the wings and the beluga comes past my lounge window. I'm in north Wales
This plane often flys above our house in Oldenburg, because of the Airbus Bremen company
I'm jealous! I'm yet to see any Beluga fly
Whale in the sky. Amazing technology
A330-200 fuselage at front and A330-300 for the rear, that makes Airbus Beluga XL so special at the first place.
Look up flying guppy. Airbus didn't invent this aircraft. They bought an old design and modernized it to suit their needs.
What a beautiful plane! ✈️❤️😍
Yet another gorgeous Airbus beast!❤❤❤
Yes thanks to its American parents the flying guppy.
Absolutely stunning yet elegant airplane
A milestone in Airbus history!
They bought the plane from a 🇺🇸 company years ago. It was called the flying guppy in those days.
Imagine converting that into a private jet, The sheer insanity you could accomplish with the interior space.
now thats a happy happy whale
A Beluga is a dolphin like animal!
a happy happy dolphin
I like this painting
@@inekemateman273 actually a toothed whale...odontocetes, or odontoceti...sorry, i also love whales,but same family...😊
@@bryanp4827 no one cares
just two engines?
Just stunning footage. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Whau.
How this big guy running on just 2 engines
Why they have not retracted the landing gear ?
It should be re-named as Airdolphin 380 plus !
air bus is a company
A dolphin nearly looks like a beluga whale,but this planes 'head' looks like the beluga not a dolphin.
Did the pilots forget to pull the gears up?
Maiden flight they keep flaps and gear in landing position in case of any emergency. Only after reaching a safe glide altitude with enough time to respond to any glitch do they finally retract gears and flaps and increase airspeed.
He did. He also forgot to wear pants.
Very cool looking pane and love how low the pilots sit on that aircraft.
why is he not closing his gears?
Imagine that buzzing by your house
They are a lot of congratulations, very successful.
Whaley mc whale face!! We live in chester and saw it land today for the first time at broughton. But not before the pilot showboated and did three large curcuits of town, which was spectacular! (We were watching from a high spot on the edge of town)....eerie that, when they spool up those RR 700,s...it sometimes (from the right distance)...sounds like whale song !!
Yeah I'm pretty sure that's because air control wasn't ready for it to land. We had to do the thing in a 6 seater 40 year old Piper In Johnn Wayne airport.
Actually here's a TH-cam video of this effect thing but not in your area I don't think. th-cam.com/video/v8RaixQQKSw/w-d-xo.html
i can watch this all day..why is the landing gear still down?
Victor Kinyua, this is footage of the first ever flight of that new type of aircraft. They do not retract the landing gear on these first flights as they do on regular flights. For safety reasons I suppose...
Because they didn't retract it.
Can't wait to fly this in msfs 2024
I don't know why, but I think the chase plane should veer......
Great footage. Is the cockpit layout the same as the regular A330's?
Yes. The A330-200!
Why he didn’t lift the landing gear?
Both the landing gear and full or partial flaps seem to be deployed along the much of the flight, or at least what was shown. I wondered why as well. I also love the collision avoidance system of the chase plan complaining bitterly the whole time.
Hahahahah that's true!! Maybe is part of the first flight!!
@@owenrubin4047 That's because it's a maiden flight, meaning it's more of a test rather than a full flight. In these sorts of flight the landing gear remains deployed in case of a problem (especially an electric/hydraulic one) so they can immediately land in the safest way possible.
Oh man, I badly want to see those wheels tucked in the plane's body but it's not included in the video.
1:17 Was that an Air China A380?
Speeds adiru altitude
Flying smiling dolphin 👍👍👍👍
Not dolphin this is beluga
Why did that guy not retrieve the gear
Kinda surprised they went with only 2 engines. . .
It looks like a Baby delphino
Airbus beluga's a al maktoum international airport
Cute! Dolphin
U unbelievable it leaves the ground.
I want one.
Is it for commercial use or cargo?
Only for Airbus private use to my knowledge, to ferry parts of aircraft between different Airbus factories.
Ugh great but wouldn't it be nice if u guys just take in the gears
FANTÁSTICO 😄ESSE
Oh my God it's cute
Je sais pas pourquoi mais je trouve que les moteurs et nacelles équipant cet appareil font un peu vieillots et faiblards. Je sais pas ils m'inspirent pas au vu du gabarit de la machine. J'aurais plutôt penser à la motorisation des 777 ou 380 pour ce genre d'appareil..
Merci pour ton conseil ! Tu travaille dans l'aéronautique ?
Amusant !
big smile whale
Che bestione
I live in the uk this beluga goes past my lounge window
Lynne Lane where are you living ?
Filling air lift off and remove.
Dat boi thicc!
looks like megamind
👌
Who say's dolphins can't fly. Lols.
😱😱😱😱😱😱
Haha cutee
I'm reminded of the bee, or the beluga whale. Looks too dumb to actually work.
dolphino
✈✈✈✈✈✈✈

Dream lifter better
Looks like a huge waste of time and fuel.
That's testing smart ass
Like your birth?
