- The Airbus plant in Hamburg-Finkenwerder is one of the world's largest locations for modern aircraft construction. 365 days a year around 16,000 workers and engineers produce here in cooperation with other locations in Europe. The backbone of Airbus logistics: the giant cargo-plane Beluga. Around 2,500 wings, cockpits and hulls were transported by Airbus Belugas every year between the eleven factories in Europe. This report gives an insight into the complex workflows in modern aircraft production.

So many complicated procedures....It's mindblowing
I make the pylons. And when we bore them the tolerances are tight. It can take hours to get them into the correct position sometimes before we machine them.
Always boggles my mind how Airbus and Boeing produce as many planes as they do . The scale of these facilities is amazing .
Lots of good land for agricultural use.
I am live indifidua in yutub name. corneles mokodompit
Pffft I make way more paper airplanes than both companies put together!
Yep thats what happens when the accountants disign your aircraft for you!
Former Boeing Everett... where biggest aircraft in the world are built in biggest building in the world by best workforce in the world. Airbus is also biggest and best at what they do too. Much respect.
I worked in finkenwerder H61 FOR 5 YEARS . SUPERB . THANK YOU 🇩🇪 from India 🇮🇳
I am dumbfounded by the works , expertise , time and perfection to satisfy the needs of flying passengers and the commercial operators.
Thanks in sharing your video and very educational and informative.
Well done.
who's here after Boeing has officially become everyone's second choice
truely sadley
LOL, sad but true,
this documentary can only give a glimpse of the heroism I've seen these heroes do.
Kudos to everyone on any aircraft engineering team
Was haben sie gesagt und geschrieben?
@@TheStanem don’t speak German. Tried to translate and I don’t understand the question “what did they saw and write”
These guys do superb jobs as every country that flies aircraft has atleast one airbus in its fleet. Well done.
I work for airbus, building the wings. Amazing to watch it all being out together
Good see airbus workers taking pride and interest in what they do.
Wish I lived in Europe, I think Airbus would be an awesome company to work for. I think being a test pilot would be the most fun.
pls don't come to europe. we already have enough foreigners here
I reckon the steel machinery made in Germany is some of the best I have seen including various tools
My German spray guns make my Japanese spray guns look like trash. Oddly enough, the German paint gun is much less complex in design... Japanese gun has grommets, aeaks, packing nuts, etc. The German SATA has hardly any of that.
I'm finishing my industrial engineering masters and with no doubt work at airbus is a goal for my career
Then do it for pation, not for a high salary^^ btw Toulouse is sunny and very beautiful city
The way to go my friend.

Please post more airplane documentaries🙇🏽 I love them so much...
46:16 the soundrack here sounds litteraly like from: Tron Legacy (the movie) 🙂
Thanks for wonderful detailed documentary, lots of love to Air bus company.
4:19 You gotta love the Germans!!! I can bet you any money that this cushion this man is leaning on has a part number and a safety certificate! WELL DONE!
Long live the E U😯😮😀👍🤣

Former Boeing Everett... where biggest aircraft in the world are built in biggest building in the world by best workforce in the world. Airbus is also biggest and best at what they do too. Much respect. Both companies have ceased production of their own largest aircraft. B747 and A380 are being replaced by slightly smaller, and more fuel efficient planes.
Boeing is a leader in Lean Manufacturing. Just In Time (JIT) inventory arrival, continuous quality improvements, and many other techniques have been in place at Boeing for many years. 20 years ago, I was a Lean Manufacturing subject matter expert. We helped plants around the country including both commercial and military improve quality, reduce defects, shorten build times, and control costs.
I have been at the beginning process of every aircraft when they start as an expensive pile of parts and up to final certifications. That includes 737, 747, 757, 767, and 777. I left before 787 was finalized. On military side it was F-15 Fighting Eagle and F/A -18 Super Hornet.
I enjoy watching documentaries like this. It helps me stay current in aircraft manufacturing technologies regardless if Boeing or Airbus. Both companies play important roles in commercial and military aircraft production.
The Belugas seems so interesting to me but no one is talking about it
I really wish to see some kind of documentary about it have so many questions I wish to be answered
I would love to see separate documentaries on both The Beluga and the Boeing 747
"Dreamlifter". Both these planes have some wild ass huge bodies on them bc they're used for hauling airplane bodies, wings, etc.
Airbus is an amazing airliner manufacturer!
I wish my country (Netherlands) also is part of the production
Amazing!!!
This video is fantastic, well put together and definitely worth watching. However, I am partially deaf so in addition to listening to the narrative I need to also read the subtitles to follow bits of narrative that I didn't quite catch. The English subtitles of this video appear to have been automatically generated by computer because there are dozens and dozens of ridiculous errors. They don't even get the start and finish of a sentence correct. I can understand (and support) using auto generated subtitles but after the subtitles have been generated couldn't somebody please watch the video and correct all the errors.
Damn, I never new Airbus has a “Dreamliner” too. Man they are really competitive

Are you talking about the Beluga? If so, Airbus already had them before Boeing got their Dreamlifters!
Phenomenal.
4:25 There was a time in my life when I could have moved easily through that opening. Now I'm so old and fat that I'd get stuck and they'd go ahead and attach the wing with me still inside. I'll do my best to remain quiet during the flight, but on the long haul flights, if one of the passengers could pass down a gin and tonic to me I would appreciate it.
🤣😂🤣👌
Well, you can exercise and lose weight.. do not fall in despair.
I love doing factory work. It's demanding and hard work. This factory would be no exception.
I do believe that I would like to work here.
It really matters not if it is Airbus or Boeing this is an awesome feat by man.............. now, for the glueing together part of the wing.
Its not a big deal...the accounts decided it was cheaper and faster to use glue. Boeing told the FAA to update the procedural handbook.
I make the pylons, for A350 NEO. CNC, and some conventional work (boring/slotting).
I collect hats. Would love to have one of the hats the engineers are wearing
Excellent 🙏👏
WoW !..... Bravo !....Welcome You & thanks.
Love the towbar at 37:53
Incredible.
Fantastic 👍👍👍
Tanks for your job
I love this channel
Quite a contrast between the interior of the EasyJet plane and the Emirates plane!
Well yes, one is a budget short haul, and one is multi class longhaul.
The last time German workers built aircraft for France, things went very differently.
The French have built the best selling Mirage , Rafale fighter aircraft though.
@@pietrojenkins6901 The Mirage is NOT FRENCH. It was originally the Fairy Delta, designed and built in Britten. Then Gifted to France by the then Labor Party! YES LABOR Parties still destroy industry world wide!
@@abmbarry Cool story, bro. Unfortunately, the Mirage has nothing in common with the Fairey Delta, beyond the delta wing, which was invented by the Germans.
@@abmbarry A rather foam-flecked comment. The Fairey Delta 2 1st flew in 1954, the Mirage 3 in 1956 & entered service in 1961. The Labour Party was in opposition from 1951 to 1964 so not much to do with them. Tory & Labour alike made huge mistakes with aviation policy to such an extent the only profitable commercial British airliner ever (post war) was the Vickers Viscount. The HS125 was profitable too (but a private jet). Your ignorance & spelling appal me. (Britten - really)
@@abmbarry I am afraid what you say is absolute rubbish. All the Mirages, in all their versions, were designed and made by Dussault.
Excellent!!!
Long live Airbus,
II Parachute Regiment I think Boeing is making sure of that.
I can't stand airbus. The only reason the A 380 didn't bankrupt the company, because it was a business failure they didn't even break even on, at least it set a record though...The A380s are the newest aircraft ever to be retired from the airlines fleets because airlines can't get them to make money as they're too difficult to run full loads.
Aircraft like that are so expensive to develop that even one failure can bankrupt a company and Airbus has had at least three commercial failures in their short history. Boeing has had problems recently with their 737 Max but that's a design that's paid for itself a hundred times over already. The dreamliner, being breakthrough cutting edge was expected to have difficulties as it initially did but it's now sorted out and a smash hit. The 777 was another smash hit right from its first delivery. Boeing is like the Rolls Royce of commercial aircraft where Airbus is like the Yugo or Kia.
If it wasn't for the unfair business advantage of being subsidized by many different European governments Airbus would have been bankrupt and gone the last commercial failure they offered not to mention this one.
This doc counts orders and options as success but those orders are not contractual and they can cancel at any time exactly as the airlines did with the A380. Why would anyone buy a new A380 when there are now dozens of near!y new ones sitting in retirement at various desert boneyards around the world that can be bought for a fraction of the cost of a new one.
James M. Taylor James M. Taylor do you really assume that any américan society could survive without american constant outrageous protection and agressive policy ?
While your max make new death without any intellectual progress except financial cut , airbus was doing a whole new model of thinking an aircraft like the a 380 that will serve for other plane in futur not to miserabily crash for system failure, thanks
and so it is.
So cool
Superb
the amount of time and effort these boys put into the smallest details of each plane is exactly why airbus is 100x better and safer than boeing
@ATCkeepsUsafe How about you explain why he is wrong rather than insult him, you make yourself look ignorant.
Its funny to see boeing haters here that do not comprehend that production of boeings looks similiar. Boeing looses thanks to it retarded management and bad designs from start. Factory people work the same heee and there, so cut your german superiority bullshit. Airbus is build in bunch of countries fanboys
@@spardasquadspqr3535 exactly not to mention Boeing has made nearly all the long serving jets and planes both passeger and cargo planes. Every company will have a failure and I suspect airbus will decline through brexit
@@cormacbcb airbus got some issues with production scaling. Boeing fault is that management retards wanted to put something new without testing. Typical corpo bs. If airbus would be build by single country it would be the same shit
@@spardasquadspqr3535 yes and no. Airbus manufacturing and designing is more efficient. But workers work just as hard
Airbus no longer has to worry about intense competition.. unless it's who the first to lose a cabin door midflight
Good channel
quality is very well.
Air bus one class
Realy I like this factory

thanks for the upload
BEAUTIFUL!! SALUDOS "JERMAINE"
FROM : NEW YORK, GOOD JOB BROO..THE VIDEO IS MUY INTERESANTE & EDUCATIVO..
GERMANY RISING intro is amazing btw
I believe you mean Europe rising, though...
Love it
"love it"? are you paid by the comment or what? how do you "love" a video on the assembly line of an aeroplane ffs. Comments along the lines of "I found this really Interesting" or "I was impressed" would make sense but "love it".. did you even watch this video?
Hmm looking down the comments section there's lots of these "Excellent" 1 & 2 word slightly unrelated comments... hmmm typical yew tube analytical fudging.
Was there a few weeks ago on the airbus factory tour. 2,5 hrs the tour will take.
Good
I understand a time table but pushing people to hard to finish something that can "fall out of the air" might not be the best idea.

No mistakes. Great comment thow. Thank you.
I am proud as a European that my indigenous aerospace industry has taken the battle to the American giants so effectively after so long as the also rans! However, having spent time on both Ryanair (737) and to a lesser extent on EasyJets (A320) fleets and I have noticed distinct differences in my perceptions of the passenger experience.
I know that the Airbus product is state of the art with cutting edge materials and systems technologies giving efficiencies and cost savings to their respective operators. Interestingly though the superficial perceptions to a non aeronautical engineer, like myself, are perhaps misleading. The Boeing planes feel robust, if basic, but the differing construction appears to affect the admittedly subjective feel of the flight experience. The 320 airframes being of a more composite based unitary construction transmit operational noises much more readily. One hears the undercarriage, braking and flap operating systems more readily and taxiway surface noise is transmitted to the passenger compartment intrusively. To me, the sense of the 320 galley area on the examples I Have experience was much more bargain basement in appearance. I am sure this is not going to pass without comment but if honest, I prefer the Boeing experience on a purely superficial passenger perception basis. That Boeing has moved so swiftly to answer the completion must speak volumes about the Airbus package and that it has not gone as well as they may have hoped is perhaps sad. The two giants keep each other on their respective toes and drive technology forward apace.
I think we'd be a lot prouder if BAE hadn't sold its 20% of Airbus 15 years ago. Since then more & more wing work has gone outside the UK. It's hard to see this ever being reversed.
@@cyrillicsam Indeed i notice this everyday at work. Cheers from Toulouse
My experience is quite the opposite. The passenger cabin on Boeings just feel "rough". If you look closely you can see where the have just cut bits off here and there to make the overheads fit. The fit and finish just isn't great. Aurbus always seem nicely finished. Everything is just nicely done. Even the gaps where they are needed are nice and straight. It just feels like a better finished aircraft to me.
Crouching Hedgehog I don't disagree with your point in any way but what I am saying is that as you taxi off from the gate over the concrete taxiway in an EasyJet Airbus as opposed to a RyanAir Boeing , every concrete joint is transmitted through to the cabin space and all the mechanicals are quite discernible. This is due to the state of the art construction of the composite airframe and not a quality issue. I am just suggesting that to a average member of the public it perversely feels like the difference between being in a ford cortina or a Audi A8.
@@robinwells8879 I understand what you mean. The real question now is why do they still use concrete on taxi ways lol? That "thud thud" is like riding a train on bad track. I think the newer generation airbuses have addressed this issue. The cabins are designed to be as quiet as possible.
No one makes better planes than Europeans.
Boeing dislikes this coment.
There is no 'European', people from The Netherlands have nothing in common with people from Bulgaria or Spain. Different mentality, different people.
Russian dislike this as they load up tanks into the anotov 225

Does the transport of several major components from six or more locations, encompassing 1000+ kilometers not enhance the cost of the finished product?
The network is massive and coordinating production and supply between all the above must be a logistic nightmare
A thought I'm struggling with
Well yes, it does. But Airbus is a company of 133,000 employees, and many of those are specialists. On top, the supply chain employs many, many more. You simply can't find a place on the map where you can recruit, house and employ such an immense scale of operation, particularly in Europe where every 1000 km people speak a different language and live in a different culture. Of course, it grew like this because of political incentives as well, but no single EU country could host such a large operation by itself.
So yeah, it adds cost to the finish product but the finished product wouldn't be possible without it, and definitely not at this scale. And I am quite sure the economic benefits of the large scale weigh up to the logistical costs, many times over.
I didn't know Howie Mandal worked for airbus
Its so sad to see the A380 go, but the point to point model is just better for airlines and passengers then the hub and spoke.
Wow, surprised how small the site is. But I live in Everett.
nice flex lol. btw isn't boeing moving everything to north carolina now because of the unions?
This is only one of 4 in total, Hamburg "only" houses the production of most A320 family aircraft. Compare it to Renton instead!
Is "flow line" some type of of term Pilots use? Because if not they should change it to jet stream...
@Cliff
“Flow line“ is a manufacturing term. It refers to the sequence of stations on the manufacturing floor that the aircraft follows from the beginning of the manufacturing process to final assembly - roughly the same meaning as “assembly line“.
Unlike what stopped the construction of the Tower of Babel the construction of gigantic airplanes works perfectly with so many different languages
Language is Maths and CAD designs.

This is not Boeing Assembly plant in NORTH CHARLESTON! Diese kinde est sehr professional!
Yes your right is the airbus finally assembly line
nearly 2 years into COVID social distancing, this looks kinda quaint - as I say regularly 'remember when we used to travel ?'
sad near the end too - the 380 was once the future - now since a lack of orders ... 😮💨😷😞
What the heck is this guy exacly measuring?!?!😱😨 6:01?????
For my next flight I will prefer an AirBus. After all the whistleBlowing at Boeing : Quality and security matters
No doubts, German "Welt" ('world') is of the same origin with "Welle" ('wave'). What kind of waves does that broadcaster emits when so many "Helden" ('heroes') of this movie became bald?
12:28 B787 should be listening to this about removing debris.
Faster and cheaper. Perfect!
How sad it is, to see the A 380 discontinued. 🤔😥🙁🇩🇰🙋🏻♂️
I thought there was only one airbus building plant based in tolouse.
Toulouse is the main factory
Airbus military / cargo models come from Spain.
There are 12 plants, cheers from sunny Toulouse!
There are assembly plants for 320s in China and USA. 220s in USA and Canada.
That’s where my plane was built
Shane they don't have any reason to biuld anymore planes
I‘m confused because you keep saying engineers and mean mechanics. I don’t think the words can be used simultaneously. The work of the mechanics differs from the work of the engineers.
2:00 Hopefully not compromising on safety like Boeing.
Airbuses safety record is incredible
Boeing is far superior all across the board.
Liam Static yeah, designing something with MCAS screams saftey first.
No Airbus has ever been grounded for 2 years.
The South Carolina plant has so many quality issues, many airlines explicitly do not order their planes from there
Fascinating to see. Welt documentaries are amazing to watch, but the more recent ones have better voice overs/ and voice production. The voices and voice over person not great on this one. :(

Airbus showing Boeing how its done again...no shitty e mails to each other what a load of crap were building
how you know lol. emails only become public during a lawsuit. nobody was suspecting the vw emails either.
What course should I take if I want to assemble an aircraft?
Engineering I think
Mechanical aviation engineering
Airframe and power plant at an aviation schools. Spartan School Aeronautics in Tulsa Oklahoma is a very good one, but there are others. Takes about 2 years.
And we questioned why we discontinuing the A3 80 Airbus
That paint job in retrospect...maybe not the best.
They only build the A380 fuselage in Hamburg, they don't put in the interiors like you said.
A 380 Aircraft structure is built at Toulouse. Then it flies to Hamburg for interiors to be fit. The final work and inspection is again done at Toulouse b4 handing over the aircraft over to the customer airline!
Not true : assembly and first flight is in Toulouse (FAL1) / cabin furnishing in hamburg (FAL2). I see this everyday..
@@Rohitjaen I think the last few of Emirates came to Hamburg on their first flight already and were also delivered from there, but most other customers did the way you described it!
I have only one Flyer Program ....Star Alliance. Lufthansa est uber alles! But I usually fly LOT because the Flight Attendants are nicer! But we see that Germany is the Best! I feel that in order the really make the E.U. work to it's maximum, the highest level of productivity to made it Supremely Competitive internationally, Put Germany in charge of the E.U. Forget Brussels! Remember when Germany ran France, the Low Countries, Czechoslovakia, the Balkans, the Ukraine, and all of Central and Eastern Europe? Yes, way back then! Europe was unified under German leadership. So the politik was wrong and some of the social engineering was way too severe! O.K. that part we can leave out today! But you have to admit, that Germany was an Empire that probably should have existed anyway. Way better than having the British and Americans support Stalin! What was Churchill and Roosevelt thinking?
Best plan for the long haul A 350-900
The Airbus A350 XWB is a family of long-range, wide-body airliners developed by European Airbus. Originally launched in 2004 as an A330 development with composite wings and new engines, it was redesigned in 2006 as the "XWB" new design, powered by Rolls-Royce Trent XWB turbofans. The prototype first flew on 14 June 2013 from Toulouse in
This is sarcasm right? You do realise that what you are saying is basically Nazi propaganda?
Distinct lack of safety glasses in this video. They don't believe in them over in Europe?
How are those small bolts able to hold the wings on to the fuselage? It just doesn't seem like that connection would be strong enough, especially after the engines are hung.
They're of aero grade and made out of titanium, one of the strongest and lightest metal, plus they use about 1000 rivets per wing. So yeah, pretty strong bond along with aircraft grade industrial adhesive.
Those passed the engineering design stage and most importantly the "engineering stress analysis" which determines what construction materials to use and the required number of bolts in relation to the allowable design stresses of every component in the whole assembly. It's more about the application of engineering mechanics and strength of materials studies in engineering courses 🤦♂️ to ensure the technical safety. This document concentrated more on the production (manufacturing) but there are more works involved behind the scene of the detailed design and engineering - but this is guarded closely to protect their intellectual property.
Heh, back in the olde days of aviation.
looks like their building a plane for Hawaiian airlines
So explain that to me again wow 380 is being discontinued awesome aircraft makes no sense
Frank Marburger Companies are not able to fill their planes to 400+ passengers every flight, especially during off seasons such as school terms. This means that companies do not make as much profit as they do in the summer or the holidays. Also, as climate change is becoming a more and more important factor to take into consideration, more modern and efficient engines are being released. Those plane models are then more attractive to companies as passengers would prefer to fly on them. As well as this, people like to travel directly to their destination and smaller aircraft may be required for those airports. The A380 is more useful for major airports to airports transfer usually with connecting flights from hubs. So, as unfortunate as it is, the A380 does not have as much demand despite its beauty .
Boeing answered that 20 years ago when it announced that Boeing would not proceed with a super jumbo. Their market study showed that only about 200 routes could be developed from airports that could handle the craft and that only 29 of these could be operated at a profit. The 380 has to fly 85% full to break even.This led Boeing to the conclusion that demand would be unlikely to exceed 300 units. Then there is the matter that engines are about 50% of the maintenance cost on a two engine aircraft and a 4 engine plane cost 50% more than a two engine unit. The 380 was optimized for passenger hauling which meant it had too much fuselage (for low density use) and not enough weight capacity remaining for cargo payloads.
They produced four of these planes. The first three crashed.
Curious how former Spark or Free Documentary videos are being reissued under the Welt brand. Their strange use of the so-called English language continues despite this. In particular I continue to be puzzled as to what they mean by 'monuments' and upper wing covers.
Free Documentary is one of our customers. We (Welt) produced this documentary and own the rights!

What is that orange pouch some employees are wearing? Also, why are some employees wearing that weird blue hat?
Orange pouch are FOD bags, you out your stuff in there so there is no debris left in any part of the aircraft (instead of using your pocket)
Brezveze. 😛😇Pls 4 the next video. SOFORT!!!
Right I mean the A380 Airbus why is it being discontinued it's an awesome aircraft
Because it makes no sense in this world. Its probably the second highest fuel consuming aircraft. It also struggles to fill its capacity each time and airports having to retrofit for the plane makes no sense
Because they couldn't sell them.
