738 756 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Just watched this video that was posted on one of my VA's and had to post here for the Airbus addicts! Shes a nice looking bird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafal Haczek 1612 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 for the Airbus addicts! Here's one (well, at least after I fall out of love with MJC Q400)! She's a nice looking bird! Definitely. Though my initial impressions were mixed (I am generally a hardly changeable personality), it is quickly growing on me. Watching this video I would say she looks like the most modern (close to futuristic) airliner airframe around. I even start loving the windshields, which initially pushed me off somehow. I still have to take to the flightdeck. A very very modern one, no doubt, yet not explicitly convincing in its appearance - especially the dark beige (?) glareshield and the huge scale around the knobs (resembling an old radio set or a classic amplifier)... On the other hand, it is supposed to be functional, not necessarily beautiful, right? http://www.a350xwb.com/x-tra/360-cockpit-view/ Thanks for sharing, Chris!

Rafal Haczek 1612 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Awesome, HF, I'll set my alarm clock! Thanks for the heads-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafal Haczek 1612 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I have seen the takeoff (not live unfortunately). Two words from me only: a-w-e-s-o-m-e and b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l! I'm in deep love with A350 now (will replace A340 as my favourite long-hauler). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotelfox 18 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 What a privilege taking such a bird to skies for the first time as the PIC! I' m jealous!!

Deputy Sheriffs jrotaetxe 242 Posted June 22, 2013 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted June 22, 2013 Do not know if this thread is a monographic for the 350, but I do like this video about the big brother... I think is impressive (already posted in the forum, do not remember where) Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

738 756 Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 I agree, I particularly like the A340-600. Yes this is one awesome bird! I was watching Airport Live the other day on BBC2 and they were loading up a Virgin Atlantic 600 live, it was bound for South Africa and in the cargo hold there was a rally car and all sorts beneath the pax, the best part though was the live footage around the aircraft, you could see the sheer size of her......They dont call this bird "the beast" for no reason, a really beautiful looking aircraft in my opinion!
