Airbus A380(air bus 380) is the world's largest wide-body passenger aircraft manufactured by Airbus Europe. The first prototype of Airbus A380 made its debut in Toulouse, France on June 65438+1October 65438+August 2005, and completed its first flight on April 27, 2005.
By 2065438+February 2009, Airbus had received 290 orders and delivered 235 aircraft. Emirates Airlines is the largest customer of Airbus A380, ordering 123 aircraft and delivering 109 aircraft.
The A380 has a total length of 73 meters, a height of about 24 meters, a wingspan of nearly 80 meters and a total cabin area of 845 square meters. In other words, it is as high as seven floors, and at least 20 double-decker buses can be parked in the plane.
The cabin of Airbus A380 is divided into two floors, with a standard capacity of 555 passengers and a maximum capacity of over 800 passengers, which is 300 more than that of Boeing 747, the former "world champion". Because of the spacious interior, the A380 even has toilets in business class and first class, and passengers can also shop at the duty-free shop in the corner of the cabin or have a drink in the bar.
Extended data
900 passengers were exposed in the air.
Airbus A380 is the largest civil airliner in the world (reaching 1 in 2020), with the most luxurious interior and the largest passenger capacity. However, Airbus does not intend to stop the innovation and construction of large passenger aircraft.
Foreign media exposed a patent document of Airbus, which showed the design concept of A3XX double-decker passenger plane. The estimated passenger capacity is 900, far exceeding the 853 of A380.
Unfortunately, the patent does not give the specific engine model and wingspan size. According to media analysis, the greatness of A3XX is not necessarily reflected in appearance, but more in the improvement of internal space utilization.
From the patent document, we can see a retractable folding seat design, which can not only accommodate more seats, but also make the leg space between seats more spacious when there are fewer passengers.
