what a nice piece of engieniring!!!! that plane is reall impressive! airbus employees can be very very proud of that wonderful machine made in Europe.

Don't forget that Different parts of the A380 are made all over the world. Like i think its the engines are made in Australia. So its a joint operation. But it creates more jobs. So we all win!

I think the engines are made in Britain, and the wings are made in Wales

WRONG.

Airbus is French owned, but their manufacturing plants are based all over Europe... so it's primarily just Europe.

The engines for A380 either come from America or England... most A380's run GP7000 (the more powerful version, which come from America), but a few run Trent 900 (slightly more economical), which come from England.
