Most people don't seem to understand, this is the LAST DELIVERED XL, so they will be in use for the next 20/30 years, no more production or orders of XL, now they will be fully in service :) They will be seen more than before
@@datutturugang666 that's all gonna change as Airbus has recently opened an air cargo company which will exclusively use the classic Beluga airplanes (so NOT the newer XL versions. Beluga XL is entirely dedicated to transporting airplane parts). So yeah...the older Beluga planes are gonna become freighter aircrafts
I think the reason for all the confusion in the comments is that the word "delivery" could mean the aircraft itself was delivered from the factory (the intended meaning) or a payload was delivered somewhere BY the aircraft, which is what a lot of us thought when we saw the video title.
☠BLACK BARON☠ "Concorde" and "007" is retired ... so ... when the parts come back from Brexit to Germany, Spain, France Toulouse ... they pay "Import Fees"? Isn't that a rather complicated matter. "Delivery of Goods" between England and the rest of EU?
Nothing happened guys! It's the last delivery, not retirement, plus the beluga will never die, when the time comes, just like the for the beluga st, a new beluga will take's it place, expect to see these things fly for atleast 15-20 years!
The cutest group of planes in the sky. Period. I wonder, in a sea of super transporter planes with fish names from Airbus (and the guppies), if an A380 could have a future (maybe like the SUPER Beluga)
That would be impossible. As an A380 Beluga Is Now Double The Weight and double the height. If it's double the height, Airbus would need to build a delivery centre double the height as well.
@@Waddleprodzz17 so bigger wings with larger engines and more engines, would have more power and more lift, so you think it wouldn't take off. Can explain that theory?
@@matthewbaynham6286 The A380 is already extremely heavy, adding the extra cargo needs would ad a good 1,000 pounds for electronics for a large cargo door and other things like that, then the cargo that it would be carrying ads like 5,000 pounds and it would need a very large runway and little fuel to be able to fly long routes. That’s why the A380 F never happened
An A340-based Beluga was considered by Airbus, but neither the A340 or A380 would be able to use the relatively short runway at the Broughton wing plant in North Wales.
Hey Airbus i always loved you equal boeing and you i always see you BelugaXLs going over my school in uk wales i even see one landing i always wanted to be a plane soon and my grandfather used to work with you. Thank you.
@@Aviator381 You either lack intelligence or the miserable education in the USA has once again failed you. Or you live in a parallel universe in which Boeing still delivers quality and is respected by its customers. In this one, they have only made a fool of themselves in recent years. And now the mishap with the Starliner. They are leaders in miserable quality and scandals. Otherwise only 2nd choice
The eyes on the airplanes make them looks cuter than they should be. It also makes the shape of the plane looks much more acceptable and not that weird.
The first generation of Beluga's have a lot of differences compared to today's Beluga. Many things stay the same though, The Beluga Whale Shape, The large cargo capacity and it being an Airbus Transporter. The new beluga today does have a mouth around the cockpit and winglets, as it is an A330-743l, and the predecessor was an A300-600ST. The beluga is a beautiful aircraft and will stay in the sky for years to come.
Congrats on the 6th and last delivery of this whale. Don’t worry both the ST and XL ones will be flying for years to come, and maybe randomly come to your home airport near you :)
Not really. What were they meant to do? Build their own version? The guppy planes were needed for the a300 which means since it hadn’t existed yet the a300 wouldn’t be bringing in money that they could use to build their own. It’s not crazy at all. Very sensible. Also they were mainly from NASA so it’s not as if they bought them from Boeing
To people who think think boeing is airbus enemy, airbus would most likely not e xsist. the iconic super guppy airbus used fro years was actually a distorted 737. So without boeing airbus would pf most likely not exsist
though i was known to be a really big boeing fan and usually being critical of airbus, seeing that airbus probably wont build another beluga is rlly sad ngl, the beluga served airbus well

Exactly
consider that nobody except airbus themselves use the beluga, it’s their own personal big cargo plane for delivering aircraft parts

@@Adrenaline_chaser weren’t they already 100% freighter aircrafts whatsoever? to me a plane who solely flies cargo sounds pretty much like a freighter
@@datutturugang666yes but they'll be open to customers. Perhaps they didn't use the best wording
Why is everyone acting like the beluga is being retired, they’ve just delivered all of the beluga’s that airbus needs 🤷♂️
Because in the near future they'll replace it with something else, that some people call: "Futuristic ugliness"
@@Gelaviation wha?
Bro this is a sad moment for all 'aviation enthuses'.
🗿💯🐳
They’re just dumb
Don’t say goodbye! It just means 6 out of 6 BelugaXL were built and put in services! NOT RETIRING!
oh ok thanks
If airbus retires all 6 of it's beluga XL after the end of their service life, they may design another transporter, most likely based on the A380.
@@MattOdtujanI think that pretty much is too expensive for just that, I mean the 225 is “two” much for Airbus, the belugas are perfect sized.
And those converted A380 will most likely have new engines.
@@MattOdtujan the A380 has been out of production since 2021, and its final assembly line has been converted for A320 family manufacturing.

4:08 isn't that satisfying how perfectly lined up the plane is with the facility floor
thumbs up for not ruining visuals and audio with overeager promotional voices :)
Living in the north west of England, I love seeing these fly overhead every so often on their way to and from the Airbus factory at Broughton.

@@RichardsAVWhat about converting an A350 to a Beluga?
@@mmjissoskibiddy idk plus Airbus said that the A300/330 is the prime unit to build the beluga
Such a beautiful piece of engineering
just a basic plane lol you want true beautiful enginering look at USA aerospace, we OWN the world 🦅
I am so proud of Airbus!
i live near Hamburg, and i once saw her slow and low above my haed - i was stunned about her sice and silence ..
Absolutely beautiful aircraft
Super guppy, beluga ST, Beluga XL
The final BelugaXL livery really warms my heart
well, good on airbus for finishing production. i hope to see these in use for a very long time
I just wish that Airbus had used the A380 as a base for the Beluga, that would have been a really Super XXXL transporter.
It wouldn’t be able to take off. While it would be awesome it would be way way to heavy

Airbus be like: I used the Beluga to make the Beluga
I love the beluga and I also love the way you made the eye wink on the 6th one 😉
i haven't looked at The Belgua in probably yrs this looks detailed & unique ime.
Guys it just means theyve completed all the beluga builds and theyre putting those in servic3
Hey Airbus i always loved you equal boeing and you i always see you BelugaXLs going over my school in uk wales i even see one landing i always wanted to be a plane soon and my grandfather used to work with you. Thank you.
Airbus says that’s enough Beluga’s and I’m happy about your Amazing history ❤
I’ve always wanted to know this planes story, thanks Airbus!!
Airbus are one of the few companies that make me proud to be European😢
Yo… smart words brother…
and Boeing makes me hate being american
True..
I feel the same & I am not European
Same
i wonder if the next one will be based on the a330 neo or the a350 or something completely different
Human beings are fucking awesome
Amazing, unique plane!
The most beautiful aircraft livery design ever!!
This amazing! I wonder wonder what the next airbus cargo plame will be
A350F

Now we need those 3 to line up.
lineup complete 🔥🔥🔥
damn, it is crazy how airbus delivered its last BelugaXL, I hope they do not retire anytime soon.
this aircraft is legendary
aww, sad that the beluga is ending production, i remember seeing the first ever one in toulouse, france while in a tour in their factory
It is ending production, but at least every beluga is delivered and in service for the next decade or 2
I really hope they keep the beluga design when the planes are retired in 2050 or sm
Man, I love the beluga
you will always fly high in our hearts 😘😘

Time really flies
And so do Airbus aircraft 😮
Fr
6 is enough? Bro I'd build 4 more to make a whole Beluga family
That’s too much
Probably the cutest planes out there. I mean, look at that wink 4:00 😉
If there is need for more, more will come. No time for wrong nostalgia
I thought they meant that its the last delivery that the beluga XL will do thanks god
Hello guys, thank you for supporting me, it has been a long journey since the first one.
Anytime❤️
earthlings: lets build 5 big planes to move parts to another place. Aliens: lets build everything at the same location
Airbus Beluga is not operated by Airbus.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭WHY IT STOPPED IN PRODUCTION WE NEED MORE😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It will be in service for a decade or 2 so don't worry
I'm pretty sure Airbus knows how many they need.
@@LPPokefan true
Such a wonderful aircraft
Let's just hope they don't die out any time soon. As much as the beluga kinda looks weird, it still looks cool, and is a nice aircraft.

you did a great job airbus, nice
Airbus is trying to make it like the end of the 747 production😂😂
Really, I see a celebration of building their transport fleet.
2:18 I like how the ST delivered the parts for XL 😂
Airplanes are evolving steadily.
Man the beluga is a good plane
i dont know how many times i watchd this ...
Another great guy who’s production stopped sad day in aviation
The end of a beautiful stage From the beginning of its manufacture until today,, thanks beluga To fly for many more years ❤
Dang and I saw 3 at the same time on the same screen on flightradar✨
Imagine it is officially the Airbus A330-743L.
Your comment that you said ‘-743L’ is already an offical name (alongside the ‘Beluga XL’j
I love beluga
It may be the last, but interestingtly the original Beluga fleet is still operational, due to the gigantic backlog of A320neo Family and A350 orders.
After about 25 years when new transport planes are needed. What will it be beluga XLneo (A330neo) or beluga XXL (A350)
fun fact: super guppy is the last descendant of b29 superfortress
btw airbus needs to build beluga xxl, based on a350 freighter
I love the beluga!
Imagine in the next 20-30 years they re-made a new Beluga based on the A350 family
Still not sure why every plane isn’t one of these. You could fit so many more passengers in each plane.
It’s crazy how they used to use the Boeing super guppy
Not really. What were they meant to do? Build their own version? The guppy planes were needed for the a300 which means since it hadn’t existed yet the a300 wouldn’t be bringing in money that they could use to build their own.
It’s not crazy at all. Very sensible. Also they were mainly from NASA so it’s not as if they bought them from Boeing
Wow, how long did this take you to write it? By the way thanks for the feedback. You made me learn something.
@@Emirates_aviation2025 less than 2 minutes. Wasn’t a lot of writing
"Every Airbus is delivered on a wings of a Boeing"
The super guppy wasn’t made by Boeing.
It’s not the retirement…just the last delivery…plus I swear they gotta be working on a new beluga
Why video is called Last BelugaXL Delivery?
But its video with airbus belaugas family story
Because it’s the final one to ever be produced, the 6th XL
why the raised floor section between the fwd and main gear?
How does the Airbus BelugaXL run on 2 engines? Are they very very powerful engines?
Fantastic aircraft.
I'm surprised they don't convert retired pax A380, they're a bit in the chunky side.
Is it just me or is it sad to see all these iconic planes end production
Airbus needs to make a A380 Beluga XXL
Expensive. What do you expect it to carry? The A380 production is already discontinued.
Could the Beluga not be used to take the A220 wings from Belfast to Canada instead of using the Antonov AN-124?
Amazing!
BelugaXL6 is being delivered from assembly. It's not being retired.
I like the content
can I buy the super guppy or beluga XL at my local Wal-Mart?
A model or a real beluga?
yes
will there be a belugaXWB based on the a350

Why though
Wait, what gonna happen with the old production plants, Are the gonna be used for the A380Neo? (JK)
Beluga looks cute
Guys don't worry this ain't the last BELUGAXL forever it's just not gonna have some orders for a bit.
Dude u don't understand. That is the last beluga XL and all beluga xl's are in service now.
????? no one can order the BelugaXL?
