If this wasn't the most efficient way then Boeing wouldn't copy it with the 787.

road transfer goes on by night you genius

I would have to agree, the Airbus A380 exseeded its budget by 1 billion euro´s, that would bring just one country to its knees .....

Airbus is European. What do you think would happen if you assemble the planes in just one country.

The other countrys would be pissed...

This decision is a political decision and not an economic one..

i agree ,what if there is a snow storm or some other type of storm--do they shut down production????

and image all the traffic they are blocking

with those big trucks.

I was under the impression that Airbus has spread the production around some countries on mainland Europe and that is the reason they have to ship huge parts like what we see in the video? how can that be affective? sounds more like a step to please the public and politicians

this dosent look likt the most cost efficient way of assembling a plane.
