huge respect to the whole team who put their efforts in building such a complex machine. Where no single mistake is allowed, its such a appreciable task.
I think it’s impressive how much effort they put into these planes , the safety of everyone onboards depends on their quality and skill to make the plane as safe as possible, that they really think about the responsibility when they assemble the plane l huge respect for these guys 😊

Most people today don't know what units like feet, meters, millimeters are. Stadiums are used because its easier for the average stupid person to understand
It's nice to see people being proud of their work, and being in good mood while they work. It's not surprising that the quality is top notch when people are like that.
Uh, they didn't show the disgruntled ones who were bypassed for promotion. Those are the guys that will leave a monkey wrench in the engine on purpose!
This documentary offers an incredible glimpse into the complex and meticulous process of building the Airbus A350. It's awe-inspiring to see the dedication of the specialists and the logistical precision required for this aeronautic masterpiece. Thanks for shedding light on this remarkable engineering feat.
Airbus usually copies trend. Everything mentioned here has been done by the Boeing in 1970s and 1980s in the 777 project. 777 was the real revolutionary aircraft in this class. Having missed the bus in 747 revolution, and seeing enormous success of twin engine ultra long range wide bodied, carbon composite 777, airbus finally woke up and came up with an alternative by 2000s to compete with 777. A350 is a result of that. Considering the technology available in 2020, this is the best airbus could do to catch up. Europeans for long depended on American middle class consumer for their prosperity and doesn't know how to innovate. From automobiles to aircrafts, story is the same. Result of socialism creeping through the system
@@chi-8289 Actually you should at least try and get the facts right... The Boeing 777 is a conventional aliminium aircraft (less than 10% of its structural weight was composite materials)
Duy Le Nguyen and the A350 is a copy of the 787 so what? The 787 has tinting windows, bleedless engines and the list goes on. The A350 is quite conventional in design.
@@superskullmaster at least airbus's work though 😂😂 Innovative this innovative that and then ends up in the ground with dead bodies everywhere, boeings a shitty morals company
A350 is the most beautiful aircraft designed since the Concorde, her wing design should be considered as an art masterpiece in my opinion. Her amazing Rolls Royce XWB's are a an engineering marvel and they're unbelievably clever and efficient.
@@bogdan90572 things........ 1) Foxtrot Oscar, knobhead. 2) The wings on the 787 are indeed absolutely exquisite, especially under load after take off, but I actually prefer the A-350. Let me guess.........🤔........ you're a septic, yes?
@@bogdan9057You're wrong there, young man, I've had a passion for aircraft for almost 50 years, more than you've been alive, so I know a fair old bit, thank you. The wings on the 787 are pretty exquisite, especially under load after take off, but I prefer the A-350 personally.
bruh u do realize that multiple airbuses have crashed because of a malfunction in their computer systems, hell, an Air France a320 on its debut flight crashed cos the computers stopped the pilot from pitching up which is just as serious of a case as MCAS, but ofc u dont know that lmao, so stop making urself sound like an idiot by just blindly blaming Boeing, Airbus also has had many problems.
I am 61 years old and have flown many times but I am still in awe every time I board a plan to fly somewhere! Aircraft have always been fascinating to me and amazing they will lift off the ground with tons of weight!!!!
The wife and I flew to the Philippines and back on fairly new Airbus A350's, we were fortunate enough to fly business class. Impressive aircraft, plenty of takeoff power, quite cabin, comfortable flight, nice amenities, superb.
Fantastic documentary about what goes into the physical assembly of this plane. One little story from me... I used to work at a company which developed embedded engine control systems. The company was spun off of Safran and the final customer was Airbus. Once, the CEO asked us why we had such little opinion of and took so little pride in the work we were doing. He said that back in assembly, every worker takes pride in every single screw and knows every serial number of every washer by heart, so why wouldn't we feel pride in developing software that keeps those planes up in the air and is the biggest factor in the success or demise of an aircraft. Well there you go, noone talks about software. We never got to see an engine running our software live. When documentaries like this are made, noone cares about the millions of man-hours that go into invisible things. Yet everyone is quick to blame software :D The answer is: improve engagement with the final product. Show those engineers why they spend their life engineering software for 20 year old microcontrollers. Let them see the thing take off, then they will take pride in their work and your retention goes up as well
From an Aerospace engineering student to you Sir, an experienced professional: I truly understand why you might be frustrated regarding the lack of software focused documentary. But the problem is, not too many people will stay interested to watch the full documentary about what goes on behind a microcontroller or a full embedded system. They are indeed immensely important, I mean c'mon, even the assembly line workers are using software to put the aircraft fuselage parts in place and I had the Airbus final assembly line (FAL) visit last week, and saw the fuselage parts are also aligned using laser sensing (which is again, software!). My point is even though it's very important, it would/might not be a good documentary for general people (I may be wrong). Also, human beings are always fascinated with BIGGER things, specially aircraft. So I guess that's why you'd actually find at least a dozen documentaries about Airbus aircraft only or possibly even more. Also, because of the MCAS system indeed was faulty which is why B737 MAXs crashed, people blamed the software directly. Specially, media hyped it over. But as engineers, we understand it's an issue of top-down management, not just software. I hope you would not take any offence, I just wanted to share my thoughts on it. But I really would be interested to see a documentary about all the hard work going behind many different software; from low level language/assembly language to the assembly of the controller board :)
Yeah I really enjoyed this video. I just subscribed now. The only thing is I m french and it s frustrating when the english translation covers the workers voices.😉 Great documentary anyway
I am unable to say. Just how exciting this is to nit just see but know. I just love the human brain. People look at destruction more. Instead of have pure joy in seeing what is clearly possible in the race of man. I hope this will inspire. It is beautiful. I am grateful to see this.
al ntr planes amount to only 2% of the worlds greenhouse gas emissions animal agriculture causes 18-51% of the emissions so even if we stop flying things will barely change. Don’t believe me? Search up cowspiracy and watch the documentary. Yes it’s spelled cowspiracy.
I've flown hundreds of times but everytime I board a plane I'm in awe of the engineering. It's a metal tube flying at insane speeds thousands of feet in the air.
This has to be one of the best channels on UA-cam! I live in Alabama and have toured our Airbus A320 Manufacturing Facility in Mobile and it's just truly amazing!
Ok buddy. I work in Economic Development in the state of Alabama. Airbus is vital to our economy here in the south. It’s an amazing place, you should come see it for yourself!
andresa1963 Not even close buddy. This thing is the pinnacle of aircraft engineering at the moment, that’s why the Europeans are usually always at the top in terms of engineering and design, they take time and pride in their products. Boeing didn’t, they literally made a plane that can do an automated nosedive without pilot input. Same with European cars, they are made with extreme detail and American cheap plastic cars are not, most rich people buy Audi, Ferrari, Mercedes, VW, Rolls-Royce, and it’s a smart choice. Airlines do the same, smart decision making often leads them to buy Airbus aircraft because of how fuel efficient and engineered they are. And the Boeing 777X doesn’t even exist yet, I love how Americans just think that their products are so amazing and view that foreign products as bad.
YMML Aviation It’s the same with everything. The Europeans make everything to a higher standard and degree of quality. Cars and planes included....Just try some Italian coffee or some French or Italian fashion (Chanel, Versace, Gucci, etc.). Even wine and cheese. There is no higher standard than Europe, which is why something to be made in Europe is a huge selling point for many people. It boasts high quality.
Fantastic video of aircraft production. Reminds me of when I worked at McDonnell Douglas. I was an aircraft structure mechanic building the MD-80’s and the MD-11 aircraft. The sense of pride and dedication is real knowing you were building one the best aircraft of that time.

Have loved the sturdy and spacious twin aisled A350 and have enjoyed it on a few long haul flights. Has a relatively quite cabin. Building an airplane is a huge collective responsibility..I love the way Airbus people go about it. Revealing behind the scenes documentary.
This documentary video is absolutely amazing. I have never seen an actual aircraft being manufactured before from any video ever so this was fascinating for me to watch this. The Airbus A350 is an amazing machine from a fantastic manufacturer. The employees who work there are very well trained and are very intelligent. I would absolutely love to fly in one of these one day in the future as i have never ever been on an airplane. Well Done Airbus Great Video as well.
As a lifelong Boeing fan (lost alot of respect for them lately), growing up next to those gigantic buildings where they assemble the plane's, I have to admit that Airbus is impressive. They are half the age of Boeing and are currently destroying them on every level. Their plane's are incredibly safe, effective and efficient. Boeing has some really safe and effective plane's too, but Airbus is more consistent nowadays. I really hope that Boeing becomes the company I grew up loving again. Both Airbus and Boeing need each other. I want them both to succeed equally. I do believe the Max embarassment and the 20 billion dollar hit to their bottom line has woke them up. It's in their own best interest to make safe plane's. Another plane goes down for a design flaw? That's it for Boeing. Delay the plane as long as it takes! Even on that front Airbus is doing better. Their plane's suffer far fewer delays and they generally don't go over budget too much (787 I'm looking at you). All of us Boeing fans need to give respect where it is due. No other aviation company has survived their battle with Boeing other then Airbus. Now they have 60% of the global aviation market share when 30 years ago they had 5%. That's genius engineering from four European nations with hard work and passion. Let's all hope Boeing comes back with a vengeance and truly competes once again!
Great comment. I was just reading up in the Airbus 380. How the Pandemic grounded a lot of them, orders were cancelled but they’re making a comeback. Hey and thanks for stopping by and sharing. Love it.
Boeing were/are their own worst enemy. Don't get me wrong they have made some great airliners such as the 747 Jumbo Jet, 777, 767 and of course the 787 Dreamliner. There are still quite a lot of 737s flying safely around the world at the moment but during the investigation into Boeing, one of their former employees did the honourable thing and exposed the Boeing hierarchy for putting profit before safety. So, now as I am sure you will understand only too well, they have ruined the trust that so many customers had in them. Loyal customers have already started moving to Airbus. KLM, Qantas and now Air Canada. I gather that this was a mistake that McDonnell Douglas made many years ago.
@@neilburns8869 Well let's hope that Boeing fixes this. There's already evidence that they're taking safety seriously now. They absolutely have to... the airline industry doesn't survive if planes aren't safe to fly. Both on the manufacturing and airline side. We all want Boeing to succeed... I promise you that if Boeing goes out of business. Airbus would stop being the Airbus of today. Boeing has made incredible planes (like the ones you've mentioned) and we want them to continue doing that. The 737 NG has never suffered a fatality due to a design flaw. 7,000 in the air... that's really impressive. I do think that the Max is just as safe now. It will have to prove itself through many years of safe flights.
Easy to make a 350 after you've seen a 787. If Boeing built a flop like airbus 380 they would be out of business. Problem is composites and I think both companies will regret putting so much faith in them. As far as Boeing quality, they should probably stop worrying so much about DEI and focus on not killing people.
@Derya Baygan-Robinett The 797 does not exist yet. The 777-9 hasn't flown, the 747-8 is a 50 year old design with new wings and the 787 got grounded for months because of its great design. Now the 737max pancaked itself twice so will gloss over that, won't we? Just accept it, Airbus rules the skies for the moment.
@Derya Baygan-Robinett You are a joke. You really think the revamped 747 is beter than the A350. Also, put on paper all you want. On paper the 777 wouldn't split its fuselage at 149%. On paper the 737max was safe.
@Derya Baygan-Robinett Actually you can't deal with anything. Never and nowhere is the 747-8 beter than the A350. The rest of it is bullshit. The 777 doesn't fly so you can't claim it's beter, the 797 is just a wet dream by Boeing executives who wake up with the sad reality that the last 2 models to be launched got grounded worldwide. The name Boeing is ruined for now.
This is a work of art and science. But seriously great vid. Immensely complex assembly with cutting edge technology being employed in all aspects of manufacture with 53% of carbon composites . It's remarkable that a bricklayer was able to qualify to become part of the manufacturing team. The end product is awesome - a gleaming machine which is capable of transporting passengers in comfort over thousands of kilometres nonstop across oceans and continents.
To be honest seeing all the billions and millions and trillions of components, each with the potential to fail, to become unscrewed, to break, to burn out... it is a miracle more planes do not fall out of the sky! They are amazingly complicated masterpieces but it makes you really wonder if a safe plane trip you had is really something we can ever really take for granted!
Although I get your point, but miracle?? naah~ Because aviation and aircraft industry take notes and lessons from previous mistakes, and all those thousands of hours of engineering make these possible.
Yea but I wanna see how the parts are made. Like the forging of the fuselage, the creation of the landing gear, they always show the components being put together but I would like to see the creation of the main components
It is amazing that we can get enough educated, talented and healthy people together in one place to create something that works as good as this modern marvel.
@Brandon Underwood - Well, yes - Boeing, probably. Since they install software on the flight deck of the 737 MAX that deliberately crashes the plane and does everything it can to override the pilots’ counter-measures. If you were running an airline, would you seriously order a fleet of 737 MAX? It’s difficult to see how Boeing’s reputation can EVER recover from this.
@Brandon Underwood - God knows, I’m more than happy to blame that wanker Obama for everything under the sun, you’ll never have to persuade me of that. Unquestionably the worst president that the United States has ever had the misfortune to have for 8 years. But what about Boeing’s new space liner? I’ve just been hearing about that on the news, just now. Turns out that the timer fucked-up! All I can say is Boeing’s credibility has been blown out of the water - and Airbus must be rubbing their hands with glee right now.
Huge respect to the people involved in manufacturing such machines. However my fear of travelling in air is increased now since I know it in more detail !!
This is another marvelous engeeniuty of mankind. I flew A350 once what a comfortable and silent airplane it is! However the star of the show is that Green, Yellow and Red livery plane @31:43. Excellent documentary!
People at Airbus are ALLOWED to be proud, their work adds to the safety of the aircraft--not recognised at Boeing, GREED backed by government, is at the forefront.
the airbus a350 the most advanced commercial aircraft in the world its construction nothing short of a masterpiece on the grand scale and down to the smallest detail the goal minimal fuel consumption maximum range the product of precision workmanship expertise and quite simply PRIDE
Absolutely GREAT documentary, Giant Passenger Aircraft from Both Manufactures. Absolutely mind blowing, from the Manufacture's. ' Great Flying Monsters.
You can really tell their passion for building this incredible and beautiful aircraft, they take pride in their work and it shows, I’ve flown on a few A350’s and it’s truly an amazing plane. It’s quiet and super comfortable it’s little wonder it’s such a big seller for Airbus.
I wish every aircraft had this as an option for IFE especially long haul aircraft so you can hear the history and the development behind what you are flying in.
Great documentary. There seems to be a very positive work culture. Everyone had their name on their baseball cap. Extraordinarily clean which tells you something about the production and safety values. I'm sure it's not Shangri-la in every single aspect ... nonetheless it's clearly a well-managed operation with positive values. Even their staff restaurants looked amazing. They build the wings in North Wales a couple of miles away from where I live and I see the Beluga and Beluga XL frequently. Airbus are a terrific outfit.
That baseball cap is for safety, it is a bump cap and in a lot of French factories obligated. In 2018 i was in France, to make an extrusion machine ready for transport, i had to wear such bump cap in the factory
Recently flew back to EWR (Newark) from MUC (Munich) on a Lufthansa A350. My wife and I fly commercial often all over the U.S. using many different domestic airlines. That being said, Lufthansa is BY FAR the VERY BEST airline we've ever flown. The airline personnel, flight crew, cabin crew, all FANTASTIC. And the A350 was STELLAR ! (standard coach. Not 1st or business class) If I could, I'd never fly in any other jetliner.
OMG how do people design these wonderful and complex machines. And of course to such nesesary tolerances. Wow its blown my mind. Well done airbus and all that work with them, not forgetting the whole supply chain also.
huge respect to the whole team who put their efforts in building such a complex machine. Where no single mistake is allowed, its such a appreciable task.

What surprised me was that it just wasn't really better than the A380. The A380 has a far quieter cabin and is smoother in flight.
@@SwiftHDX True. That's coz it's a huge aircraft with huge wings with engines well spaced out..
@@chandrashekarr9390 Absolutely, it's an incredible beast.
28:15 I love the sound brand new rubber tyres make on clean waxed concrete floor :D
The narrator is very dramatic, exactly how he should be. Loving this
Classic example of how narratives can mislead people
Yeah, because manufacturing an airplane is very dramatic stuff and needs to be over exaggerated.
he's a yank, what do you expect.
This documentary video is absolutely amazing.
I have never seen an actual aircraft being manufactured before from any video ever so this was fascinating for me to watch this.
The Airbus A350 is an amazing machine from a fantastic manufacturer.
The employees who work there are very well trained and are very intelligent.
I would absolutely love to fly in one of these one day in the future as i have never ever been on an airplane.
Well Done Airbus
Great Video as well.

watching these guys work makes me think of the people at Boeing who can't remember to bolt the door on.
Alright im sold. My next commercial airliner is definitely gonna be an A350. 👍🏼
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Amazing... So much skill required... The amount of engineering is mind boggling. Truly amazing what mankind can do.
As a lifelong Boeing fan (lost alot of respect for them lately), growing up next to those gigantic buildings where they assemble the plane's, I have to admit that Airbus is impressive. They are half the age of Boeing and are currently destroying them on every level. Their plane's are incredibly safe, effective and efficient. Boeing has some really safe and effective plane's too, but Airbus is more consistent nowadays. I really hope that Boeing becomes the company I grew up loving again. Both Airbus and Boeing need each other. I want them both to succeed equally. I do believe the Max embarassment and the 20 billion dollar hit to their bottom line has woke them up. It's in their own best interest to make safe plane's. Another plane goes down for a design flaw? That's it for Boeing. Delay the plane as long as it takes! Even on that front Airbus is doing better. Their plane's suffer far fewer delays and they generally don't go over budget too much (787 I'm looking at you). All of us Boeing fans need to give respect where it is due. No other aviation company has survived their battle with Boeing other then Airbus. Now they have 60% of the global aviation market share when 30 years ago they had 5%. That's genius engineering from four European nations with hard work and passion. Let's all hope Boeing comes back with a vengeance and truly competes once again!
Great comment. I was just reading up in the Airbus 380. How the Pandemic grounded a lot of them, orders were cancelled but they’re making a comeback. Hey and thanks for stopping by and sharing. Love it.
Boeing were/are their own worst enemy.
Don't get me wrong they have made some great airliners such as the 747 Jumbo Jet, 777, 767 and of course the 787 Dreamliner.
There are still quite a lot of 737s flying safely around the world at the moment but during the investigation into Boeing, one of their former employees did the honourable thing and exposed the Boeing hierarchy for putting profit before safety.
So, now as I am sure you will understand only too well, they have ruined the trust that so many customers had in them.
Loyal customers have already started moving to Airbus. KLM, Qantas and now Air Canada.
I gather that this was a mistake that McDonnell Douglas made many years ago.
@@neilburns8869 Well let's hope that Boeing fixes this. There's already evidence that they're taking safety seriously now. They absolutely have to... the airline industry doesn't survive if planes aren't safe to fly. Both on the manufacturing and airline side. We all want Boeing to succeed... I promise you that if Boeing goes out of business. Airbus would stop being the Airbus of today. Boeing has made incredible planes (like the ones you've mentioned) and we want them to continue doing that. The 737 NG has never suffered a fatality due to a design flaw. 7,000 in the air... that's really impressive. I do think that the Max is just as safe now. It will have to prove itself through many years of safe flights.
Easy to make a 350 after you've seen a 787. If Boeing built a flop like airbus 380 they would be out of business. Problem is composites and I think both companies will regret putting so much faith in them. As far as Boeing quality, they should probably stop worrying so much about DEI and focus on not killing people.
@@ejkk9513so far, not so good 😢
A350 mesmerises me. It's a 21 century marvel of pure technology.this is the most sophisticated and technologically advanced aircraft on earth!!👌
Built by a company with its eye on safety and performance, not cutting corners to save money!
I love this documentary it is like building a gigantic Meccano puzzle!! Well done, Airbus!! 😍😍
This airplane is the most advance aircraft by far ! Great documentary
@Derya Baygan-Robinett I can see that you are a big fan of Boeing.. the 797 and 777x are still not yet commercialized...
@Derya Baygan-Robinett The 797 does not exist yet. The 777-9 hasn't flown, the 747-8 is a 50 year old design with new wings and the 787 got grounded for months because of its great design. Now the 737max pancaked itself twice so will gloss over that, won't we? Just accept it, Airbus rules the skies for the moment.
@Derya Baygan-Robinett You are a joke. You really think the revamped 747 is beter than the A350. Also, put on paper all you want. On paper the 777 wouldn't split its fuselage at 149%. On paper the 737max was safe.
@Derya Baygan-Robinett Actually you can't deal with anything. Never and nowhere is the 747-8 beter than the A350. The rest of it is bullshit. The 777 doesn't fly so you can't claim it's beter, the 797 is just a wet dream by Boeing executives who wake up with the sad reality that the last 2 models to be launched got grounded worldwide. The name Boeing is ruined for now.
@@kennethcoenen7643 And I thought football rivalries were brutal!
绝对厉害！明显感觉到各个方面的差距! Airbus takes the lead!
Amount of planning that goes into building these machines is insane! A350 is amazing, what a beauty!
This documentary is so amazing. Thank God for all the amazing Engineers who made this a reality. We are amazing!
Who wants to see how all the parts are made?
I want a 72 hour documentary about everything with the a350!
This is a work of art and science. But seriously great vid. Immensely complex assembly with cutting edge technology being employed in all aspects of manufacture with 53% of carbon composites . It's remarkable that a bricklayer was able to qualify to become part of the manufacturing team. The end product is awesome - a gleaming machine which is capable of transporting passengers in comfort over thousands of kilometres nonstop across oceans and continents.
This is an aviation geek's favourite documentary!
Anyone else just in awe of the human brain?
Only some of them, some people are thick and useless 😂
Absolutely amazing Videos very good
I call this god level! Humans are very fascinating to see 🦊
Thank you so much for this documentary. It's so fascinating! We will definitely tell our students to watch this video 👍
I'm getting excited to graduate and help create something like this.
I'd love to thank Herr Marvin Entholt for the job he does of writing and actually voicing stories for many of such documentaries
This is a beautiful machine. Amazing how much work and man hours go into these beasts.
A beautiful machine✌️👍✨🌟
To be honest seeing all the billions and millions and trillions of components, each with the potential to fail, to become unscrewed, to break, to burn out... it is a miracle more planes do not fall out of the sky! They are amazingly complicated masterpieces but it makes you really wonder if a safe plane trip you had is really something we can ever really take for granted!
it's also awesome to see how redundant they are, because of this it's not a miracle.
Although I get your point, but miracle?? naah~
Because aviation and aircraft industry take notes and lessons from previous mistakes, and all those thousands of hours of engineering make these possible.
What a superb documentary! Thank you!! Flying on one of those A350 has been of great comfort. Airbus you are fantastic!
The technology of man is astounding! Just think what the next 100 years will bring?
Mind boggling: DDD Thanks for creating such an epic documentary!!
I flew the A350 in December, quite a well engineered aircraft. I can't wait to compare it to the B777X
Yea but I wanna see how the parts are made. Like the forging of the fuselage, the creation of the landing gear, they always show the components being put together but I would like to see the creation of the main components
It is amazing that we can get enough educated, talented and healthy people together in one place to create something that works as good as this modern marvel.
Looks like a very organized and serious company.
@Brandon Underwood - Well, yes - Boeing, probably. Since they install software on the flight deck of the 737 MAX that deliberately crashes the plane and does everything it can to override the pilots’ counter-measures. If you were running an airline, would you seriously order a fleet of 737 MAX? It’s difficult to see how Boeing’s reputation can EVER recover from this.
@Brandon Underwood - God knows, I’m more than happy to blame that wanker Obama for everything under the sun, you’ll never have to persuade me of that. Unquestionably the worst president that the United States has ever had the misfortune to have for 8 years. But what about Boeing’s new space liner? I’ve just been hearing about that on the news, just now. Turns out that the timer fucked-up! All I can say is Boeing’s credibility has been blown out of the water - and Airbus must be rubbing their hands with glee right now.
Airbus? Nooooooo.............what's the matter with you?
@Brandon Underwood - I see they’ve just sacked the Chief Exec at Boeing. Any thoughts, my boy ....?
@@gregfolland8452 Obama fault for Boeing incompetence?what's next? Climate change is an Chinese hoax?,what a tool!
Proudly made in Toulouse ! Awesome
Assembled. Please see start of vid to see where those components are "made"...................
Huge respect to the people involved in manufacturing such machines. However my fear of travelling in air is increased now since I know it in more detail !!
this is nothing short of magical and astounding. What we build these days is hard to comprehend.
NO ROOM for error safety of millions people your hands...great job👏🏼👏🏼
Who came with this?😢😢 so unbelievable
This is another marvelous engeeniuty of mankind. I flew A350 once what a comfortable and silent airplane it is! However the star of the show is that Green, Yellow and Red livery plane @31:43. Excellent documentary!
Thank you!
Airbus makes beautiful aircrafts.
Fantastic video!
Whoever was running this job. You are an absolute legend.
Magnifique documentaire, je vous admire, je ne sais pas c'est possible, je vous admire
I could watch these documentaries daily. Thank you for uploading!
People at Airbus are ALLOWED to be proud, their work adds to the safety of the aircraft--not recognised at Boeing, GREED backed by government, is at the forefront.
can't believe it is in 4k, in UA-cam.... FREE... Wonderful!
I've flown on the A380 in economy and business class and I cant wait to get on an A350!
The best civil aircraft in the world.
Not better than the 737 Max!
@@MrVenona lol
the airbus a350 the most advanced commercial aircraft in the world its construction nothing short of a masterpiece on the grand scale and down to the smallest detail the goal minimal fuel consumption maximum range the product of precision workmanship expertise and quite simply PRIDE
The narrator’s voice is great.
Only this extreme level of dedication is the surety of passengers safety
May GOD bless these men and women who are working hard for all of us to travel faster, comfortable and reliable.
I had a privilege of visiting Rolls Royce in Derby, seeing first hand how they put these giant jet engines together.
The most amazing part of this is how the wings are attached with all the weight of fuel it’s incredible how the body can support this.
H I And when the aircraft flies, the wings support the body
The body doesn't support the wings, the wings support the body and that's why it works
Absolutely GREAT documentary, Giant Passenger Aircraft from Both Manufactures. Absolutely mind blowing, from the Manufacture's. ' Great Flying Monsters.
You can really tell their passion for building this incredible and beautiful aircraft, they take pride in their work and it shows, I’ve flown on a few A350’s and it’s truly an amazing plane. It’s quiet and super comfortable it’s little wonder it’s such a big seller for Airbus.
Congrats to the French engineers..very amazing planes
I wish every aircraft had this as an option for IFE especially long haul aircraft so you can hear the history and the development behind what you are flying in.
Devon Mo This kinda depends on the airline tho.
@@AceYoPro в этом году в связи уважением Яна я Я ынцыжяа.мм
Team Airbus ❤️❤️❤️
No safety glass
Great documentary. There seems to be a very positive work culture. Everyone had their name on their baseball cap. Extraordinarily clean which tells you something about the production and safety values. I'm sure it's not Shangri-la in every single aspect ... nonetheless it's clearly a well-managed operation with positive values. Even their staff restaurants looked amazing. They build the wings in North Wales a couple of miles away from where I live and I see the Beluga and Beluga XL frequently. Airbus are a terrific outfit.
That baseball cap is for safety, it is a bump cap and in a lot of French factories obligated.
In 2018 i was in France, to make an extrusion machine ready for transport, i had to wear such bump cap in the factory
@@walterverbeeck6929 So the baseball cap is actually specially made to protect your head so a hard hat isn't necessary? Sounds pretty cool if it works
This video is one of the most amazing documentaries I watched this year.
Thank you my friend!!!
Salute to all engineers and to all connected making aircrafts👏👏👏👏👏
Recently flew back to EWR (Newark) from MUC (Munich) on a Lufthansa A350. My wife and I fly commercial often all over the U.S. using many different domestic airlines. That being said, Lufthansa is BY FAR the VERY BEST airline we've ever flown.
The airline personnel, flight crew, cabin crew, all FANTASTIC. And the A350 was STELLAR ! (standard coach. Not 1st or business class) If I could, I'd never fly in any other jetliner.
I don't know about all that. It's a very nice planes but there are other nice planes to fly on.
OMG how do people design these wonderful and complex machines. And of course to such nesesary tolerances. Wow its blown my mind. Well done airbus and all that work with them, not forgetting the whole supply chain also.
With a lot of money.
@@Sillyturner yes certainly a completed airbus must cost many millions. Anyone knows roughly how much they all cost?
@@chrisboyslimuk5186more than $300 million but there is a discount for bigger orders 30-40%
