Dat was een toestel, dat in dienst van Singapore Airlines van Singapore naar Sydney vloog. [110], Etihad Airways and Qatar Airways also have a bar lounge and seating area on the upper deck, while Etihad has enclosed areas for two people each. [331] Emirates' new Airbus A380 has two classes - business and economy - and will hold a staggering 615 passengers in both cabins [196], Power-by-wire flight control actuators have been used for the first time in civil aviation to back up primary hydraulic actuators. De verlengde versie, misschien Airbus A380-900 of Airbus A380-1000 genoemd, zou 100 passagiers meer kunnen vervoeren, even comfortabel als de A380-800 er 555 vervoert. [308][309] In 2013, Air France withdrew A380 services to Singapore and Montreal and switched to smaller aircraft. Bovendien werd een aantal eerdere bestellingen geannuleerd. The outboard engines lack them, reducing the amount of debris stirred up during landing. De stoelindeling in de Airbus is 3-4-3 beneden- en 2-4-2 bovendeks, beide dus met 2 gangpaden. During lengthy shop stays, some airlines will use the opportunity to install new interiors.[272].

Estimates for the total over a twenty-year period have varied from 400 to over 1,700. The two aircraft have returned 3.8–4.2% per year since 2008 but the 145–155% return is lower than the 220% originally forecast. [233][234][235] A year later, Qantas debuted a new first class seat-bed and a sofa lounge at the front of the upper deck on its A380s,[236][237] and in 2009 Air France unveiled an upper deck electronic art gallery. [189], It takes 3,600 L (950 US gal) of paint to cover the 3,100 m2 (33,000 sq ft) exterior of an A380.

[288], On 15 June 2015, John Leahy, Airbus's chief operating officer for customers, stated that Airbus was again looking at the A380-900 programme. [89] In fact, Airbus delivered 26 units, thus outdoing its predicted output for the first time. [368] The contract was signed in February 2018, comprising a firm order for 20 A380s and options on 16 more. Fourteen customers have ordered and taken delivery of the A380 as of April 2019. The length from the nose to the end of the tail is 73 meters. Men kwam uiteindelijk tot de huidige uitvoering met twee verdiepingen. Thermoplastics are used in the leading edges of the slats. Het is het grootste luchtwaardige passagiersvliegtuig ter wereld. [41] To avoid damage from direct handling, parts are secured in custom jigs carried on self-powered wheeled vehicles. As it has very large wing and tail surfaces to allow a stretch and a high empty weight per seat, its cost-per-seat advantage eroded, and the A350-1000 and 777-9 will match it. 3 Class (long-range) - 517 seats. [363][364] Airbus studies started in 1988 and the project was announced in 1990 to challenge the dominance of the Boeing 747 in the long haul market. Other proposed variants included an A380-900 stretch – seating about 656 passengers (or up to 960 passengers in an all-economy configuration) – and an extended-range version with the same passenger capacity as the A380-800. This is because first class and business class seats take up more room, so if there are larger sections for first and business class, there will be a lower capacity. [52], The first A380 using GP7200 engines—serial number MSN009 and registration F-WWEA—flew on 25 August 2006. [289], On 15 June 2015, Reuters reported that Airbus was discussing a stretched version of the A380 with at least six customers. De Trent 900 van Rolls-Royce wordt geplaatst op de types A380-841, A380-842 en A380-843F. The A380's upper and lower decks are connected by two stairways, one fore and one aft, with both being wide enough to accommodate two passengers side by side; this cabin arrangement allows multiple seat configurations. Of the nearly 500 made, 50 747-400s were sold in the secondary market, including only 25 to new customers. [157] Freighter development was put on hold as Airbus prioritised the passenger version, and all orders for freighters were cancelled. [261] The A380 has an airport turnaround time of 90–110 minutes. [273] It would have the largest payload capacity of any freighter aircraft except the single Antonov An-225 Mriya in service. [22][23][24][25] The A380 designation was a break from previous Airbus families, which had progressed sequentially from A300 to A340. [38] The front and rear fuselage sections are shipped on one of three RORO ships from Hamburg in northern Germany to Saint-Nazaire in France. [268], In August 2008, the ICAO issued revised approach separations of 4 nmi (7.4 km) for Super (another A380), 6 nmi (11 km) for Heavy, 7 nmi (13 km) for medium/small, and 8 nmi (15 km) for light. [316] Airbus shares fell down consequently. De Airbus A380 is een passagiersvliegtuig van het Europese concern Airbus. Deze vlucht ging van Singapore naar Sydney. The electrical power system is fully computerised and many contactors and breakers have been replaced by solid-state devices for better performance and increased reliability. [82], Beginning in 2007 the A380 was considered as a potential replacement for the existing Boeing VC-25 serving as Air Force One presidential transport,[83][84] but in January 2009 EADS declared that they were not going to bid for the contract, as assembling only three planes in the US would not make financial sense. De grootste klant, Emirates, paste onlangs een order aan en bestelde meer kleinere toestellen en minder A380's. Er werden in 2008 twaalf toestellen geleverd: vijf aan Singapore Airlines, vier aan Emirates en drie aan Qantas. [12][13] Airbus considered several designs, including an unusual side-by-side combination of two fuselages from its A340, the largest Airbus jet at the time. Zowel voor de bovenste verdieping als voor de onderste verdieping wordt een slurf aangesloten.

Nadat in Toulouse het eerste afgeleverde toestel op 25 oktober 2007 officieel aan Singapore Airlines overgedragen was, werd op 25 oktober de eerste commerciële vlucht uitgevoerd. [63][67] On 3 October 2006, upon completion of a review of the A380 programme, Airbus CEO Christian Streiff announced a third delay,[63] pushing the first delivery to October 2007, to be followed by 13 deliveries in 2008, 25 in 2009, and the full production rate of 45 aircraft per year in 2010. Nu Airbus heeft besloten in 2021 te stoppen met de productie van de A380 kan ervan uit worden gegaan dat onderstaande versies er nooit zullen komen. The company said the problem was traced to stress and material used for the fittings. Airbus A380, the preferred aircraft of passengers around the world. The AGS is a semi-automatic analysis system of flight data that helps to optimise management of maintenance and reduce costs. [134] If it had failed to win the Emirates order, Airbus claimed that it was ready to phase out its production gradually as it fulfilled remaining orders until the early 2020s. [356] EADS explained that deliveries in 2013 were to be slowed temporarily to accommodate replacement of the wing rib brackets where cracks were detected earlier in the existing fleet. Het toestel zou ook grotere winglets krijgen, die 4 % efficiënter zouden zijn. [262], In 2005, the ICAO recommended that provisional separation criteria for the A380 on takeoff[263] and landing be substantially greater than for the 747 because preliminary flight test data suggested a stronger wake turbulence. With 8 of the 16 exits randomly blocked, 853 mixed passengers and 20 crew exited the darkened aircraft in 78 seconds, less than the 90 seconds required for certification. An A380 parted out may be worth $30 million to $50 million if it is at half-life. Ook zijn er een of twee head-up displays, huds, mogelijk. Het biedt plaats aan 853 passagiers, bij een gemiddelde configuratie passen er 555 personen in. [301], In its 2000 Global Market Forecast, Airbus estimated a demand for 1,235 passenger Very Large Aircraft (VLA), with more than 400 seats: 360 up to 2009 and 875 by 2019. De luchtdruk in het toestel is ook hoger dan gemiddeld en is te vergelijken met een hoogte van 1500 tot 2400 meter. [118] On 8 February 2012, the checks were extended to cover all 68 A380 aircraft in operation. The APU also powers electric generators that provide auxiliary electric power to the aircraft. Maximum take-off weight is increased by 4 t (8,800 lb), to 573 t (1,263,000 lb) and the range is extended by 100 nautical miles (190 km); this is achieved by reducing flight loads, partly from optimising the fly-by-wire control laws. The Portuguese ACMI/charter airline will use the aircraft for markets where high capacity is needed and airports where slots are scarce. "[126][127] Airbus expected that healthy demand for its other aircraft would allow it to avoid job losses from the cuts. In 2000, the projected development cost was €9.5 billion. Het vliegtuig produceert 50% minder lawaai dan de Boeing 747. Later it was revealed that Airbus was looking at both the possibility of a longer A380 in line of the previously planned A380-900[293] and a new engine version, i.e. [305] Is Airbus Finally Ready To Shut Down A380 Production? Emirates is by far the world's biggest operator of the A380, accounting for close to half of all the orders that Airbus has received for the world's biggest commercial passenger plane. Aircraft of comparable role, configuration, and era, "A380" redirects here. [36][37] A380 components are provided by suppliers from around the world; the four largest contributors, by value, are Rolls-Royce, Safran, United Technologies and General Electric. In 2012, the A380 received an award from the Noise Abatement Society. Due to the sections' large size, traditional transportation methods proved unfeasible,[35] so they are brought to the Jean-Luc Lagardère Plant assembly hall in Toulouse, France, by specialised road and water transportation, though some parts are moved by the A300-600ST Beluga transport aircraft. [7] But will it sell? De luchthaventerminals kunnen worden aangepast om het ontschepen van passagiers zo vlot mogelijk te laten verlopen, hoewel dat niet noodzakelijk is. [304] For the same period, Boeing was estimating the demand for 590 large (747 or A380) passenger airliners and 630 freighters. Emirates does not see any demand in the second-hand market, but is indifferent in that the retired aircraft have already been fully written down and thus have no residual value. [326] As it started receiving its six A350s to replace its A380s in December 2017, the new subsidiary will serve the Hajj and Umrah market with them, starting in the third quarter of 2018 and could be expanded above six beyond 2020 to 2022. [336] [7][172] The optimal wingspan for this weight is about 90 m (300 ft), but airport restrictions have limited it to less than 80 m (260 ft), thereby lowering the aspect ratio to 7.8 which reduces fuel efficiency[113] by about 10% and increases operating costs a few percent,[173] given that fuel costs constitute about 50% of the cost of long-haul aeroplane operation. The aircraft is below the QC/2 departure and QC/0.5 arrival noise limits under the Quota Count system set by the airport. [285] In May 2010, Airbus announced that A380-900 development would be postponed until production of the A380-800 stabilised. If the A380's only stable client were to drop the type, Airbus could cease production of the superjumbo. [290] On 19 July 2015, Airbus CEO Fabrice Brégier stated that the company will build a new version of the A380 featuring new improved wings and new engines. The 350 bar pressure is generated by eight de-clutchable hydraulic pumps. Het is een widebody-vliegtuig met twee verdiepingen, het vrachtruim niet meegeteld. Rolls-Royce Trent 900 leasing beyond March 2019 should generate US$480,000 monthly for each aircraft before selling the turbofans by 2020. Difficulties in electrical wiring Consolidation changed the networks, and US majors constrained capacity and emphasised daily frequencies for business traffic with midsize widebodies like the 787, to extract higher yields; the focus being on profits, with market share ceded to Asian carriers. [7]:31[11], In June 1994, Airbus announced its plan to develop its own very large airliner, designated as A3XX. [302], The 747 was largely replaced on transatlantic flights by the 767, and on the transpacific market by the 777; newer, smaller aircraft with similar seat-mile costs have lower trip costs and allow more direct routes. [47] On 10 January 2006, it flew to José María Córdova International Airport in Colombia, accomplishing the transatlantic testing, and then it went to El Dorado International Airport to test the engine operation in high-altitude airports. Brégier also revealed that the new variant would be ready to enter service by 2020. [176], While most of the fuselage is made of aluminium alloys, composite materials comprise more than 20% of the A380's airframe. [209], The A380 uses four 150 kVA variable-frequency electrical generators,[210] eliminating constant-speed drives and improving reliability. These increase fuel efficiency and range by reducing induced drag. [failed verification] Soon after, at the November 2013 Dubai Air Show where it ordered 150 B777X, Emirates ordered 50 aircraft, totalling $20 billion. [294] The engine would most likely be one of a variety of all-new options from Rolls-Royce, ranging from derivatives of the A350's XWB-84/97 to the future Advance project due at around 2020. Even the teardown value is questionable, in that the engines, usually the most valuable part of a scrap aircraft, are not used by any other models. [319], Ten years after its first flight, Brégier said it was "almost certainly introduced ten years too early". [341] [32], On 15 May 2018, in its EU appeal ruling, a WTO ruling concluded that the A380 received improper subsidies through $9 billion of launch aids, but Airbus acknowledges that the threat posed to Boeing by the A380 is so marginal with 330 orders since its 2000 launch that any U.S. sanctions should be minimal, as previous rulings showed Boeing's exposure could be as little as $377 million. The aircraft has a typical seating capacity of 400 to 550, depending on the configuration, and a maximum capacity of 853 passengers. The full-length double-deck aircraft, sometimes nicknamed the superjumbo, has a typical seating capacity of 525, though it is certified for up to 853 passengers. [371] [372] De cockpit bevat verder acht identieke lcd-schermen van 15 bij 20 cm, die indien nodig, van functie kunnen verwisselen. QANTAS, for example, has fitted its aircraft out with 523 seats in three classes. At its launch in 2000, engine makers assured Airbus it was getting the best level of technology and they would be state-of-the-art for the next decade, but three years later Boeing launched the 787 Dreamliner with game-changing technology and 10% lower fuel burn than the previous generation, to the dismay of John Leahy. Note, the A3XX-200 was a stretch version of the A380 and the final version, the A380-800 was a bit shorter and would have accommodated up to 868 passengers in an all-economy class configuration. On 13 June 2006, Airbus announced a second delay, with the delivery schedule slipping an additional six to seven months. No problem, aerodynamicists say", "A380 aircraft characteristics airport and maintenance planning", "Airbus opens its books for the world's biggest jumbo. [94] Emirates' Tim Clark claimed that the A380 has better fuel economy at Mach 0.86 than at 0.83,[95] and that its technical dispatch reliability is at 97%, the same as Singapore Airlines. The A3XX design converged on a double-decker layout that provided more passenger volume than a traditional single-deck design. De besturing geschiedt door middel van fly-by-wire-technologie. Het toestel kreeg op 12 december 2006 het certificaat voor luchtwaardigheid, uitgereikt door het Europees Agentschap voor de veiligheid van de luchtvaart en de Federal Aviation Administration. De eerste leveringen waren oorspronkelijk eind 2006 gepland, maar verschoven vanwege problemen met de productiecapaciteit. This involved the construction of a fleet of roll-on/roll-off (RORO) ships and barges, the construction of port facilities and the development of new and modified roads to accommodate oversized road convoys. [148] Consequently, orders for VLAs slowed in the mid-2010s, as widebody twin jets now offer similar range and greater fuel efficiency, giving airlines more flexibility at a lower upfront cost. [358], In late July 2014, Airbus announced that it had terminated five A380 firm orders from the Japanese low-cost carrier, Skymark Airlines, citing concerns over the airline's financial performance. Updating the A380: the prospect of a neo version and what's involved. Op de luchtvaartshow in Parijs, de Paris Air Show, in 2017 introduceerde Airbus de A380plus. [155] Airline configurations range from Korean Air's 407 passengers to Emirates' two-class 615 seats[222] and average around 480–490 seats. On 18 January 2018, Airbus secured a preliminary agreement from Emirates for up to 36 A380s, to be delivered from 2020, valued at $16 billion at list prices. [46], On 1 December 2005, the A380 achieved its maximum design speed of Mach 0.96, (its design cruise speed is Mach 0.85) in a shallow dive. [28] In 2006, Airbus stopped publishing its reported cost after reaching costs of €10.2 billion and then it provisioned another €4.9 billion, after the difficulties in electric cabling and two years delay for an estimated total of €18 billion. On 14 February 2019, after Emirates reduced its last orders in favour of the A350 and the A330neo, Airbus announced that A380 production would end by 2021.[6]. [183] Unlike earlier composite materials, GLARE can be repaired using conventional aluminium repair techniques. It then goes to pick up the belly and tail sections from Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA in Cádiz, Spain, and delivers them to Bordeaux. [220] On other aircraft, economy seats range from 41.5 to 52.3 cm (16.3 to 20.6 in) in width.[221]. Emirates performed its first 3C-check for 55 days in 2014. "[147], One reason that the A380 did not achieve commercial viability for Airbus has been attributed to its extremely large capacity being optimised for a hub-and-spoke system, which was projected by Airbus to be thriving when the programme was conceived. It employs Boeing 787s operating at a lower trip cost. GP7000 = Engine Alliance GP7000 The air bus A380 is a double decked plane that runs through out the plane as you can see in the diagram above. The Trent 900 is a combination of the 3 m (118 in) fan and scaled IP compressor of the 777-200X/300X Trent 8104 technology demonstrator derived from the Boeing 777's Trent 800, and the Airbus A340-500/600's Trent 500 core. [302], As of mid-2015, several airlines have expressed their interest in selling their aircraft, partially coinciding with expiring lease contracts for the aircraft. Airbus heeft dezelfde cockpitindeling gebruikt als bij een aantal van haar andere vliegtuigen, om de kosten voor de opleiding van het personeel te verminderen. Het toestel biedt plaats aan maximaal 853 passagiers. De vierde luchtvaartmaatschappij Air France ontving eind 2009 een A380. [215][7]:129 It has 50% less cabin noise, 50% more cabin area and volume, larger windows, bigger overhead bins, and 60 cm (2.0 ft) extra headroom versus the 747-400. ", Common Agreement Document of the A380 Airport Compatibility Group Version 2.1, "Minimum Requirements to Widen Existing 150-Foot Wide Runways for Airbus A380 Operations", "Use of non-standard 75-foot-wide straight taxiway sections for Airbus 380 taxiing operations", "Operational Evaluation Board Report Airbus A380-800 Report of the FCL/OPS Subgroup Report, Revision 1 18 July 2011", "Airbus set for U.S. debut of world's largest passenger jet", "Boarding please – aber ein bisschen flott! [90], Nicknamed Superjumbo,[91] the first A380, MSN003 (registered as 9V-SKA), was delivered to Singapore Airlines on 15 October 2007 and entered service on 25 October 2007 with flight number SQ380 between Singapore and Sydney. Difficulties in electrical wiring caused a two-year delay and the development cost ballooned to €18 billion. Total orders for the A380 stand at 251 as of November 2019[update]. [63] This caused overall configuration management problems, at least in part because wire harnesses manufactured using aluminium rather than copper conductors necessitated special design rules including non-standard dimensions and bend radii; these were not easily transferred between versions of the software. The typical capacity is around 550, but the maximum (the safety exit limit) is an incredible 853. Consequently, Dr. Peters recommended to its investors on 28 June 2018 to sell the aircraft parts with VAS Aero Services within two years for US$45 million, quickly for components like the landing gear or the APU. [230] Due to delivery delays, Singapore Airlines and Air France debuted their seat designs on different aircraft prior to the A380. [216][217] Seating options range from 3-room 12 m2 (130 sq ft) "residence" in first class to 11-across in economy. Heathrow's landing charges having a noise component, the A380 is cheaper to land there than a Boeing 777-200 and -300 and it saves $4,300 to $5,200 per landing, or $15.3M to $18.8M of present value over 15 years. [61][62] The German and Spanish Airbus facilities continued to use CATIA version 4, while British and French sites migrated to version 5. To compare, the 747-8 offers an exit limit of 605 and a typical capacity of 467. [27] In 2004 Airbus estimated that €1.5 billion ($2 billion) would need to be added, totalling the developmental costs to €10.3 billion ($12.7 billion). [149][150][151][152], In September 2020, Airbus completed assembly of the final A380 fuselage. Airbus is reacting to a changing economy; the recession which began in 2008 saw a drop in market percentage of first class and business seats to six percent and an increase in budget economy travellers. De A380-800 kan met twee soorten motoren worden uitgerust. Self-contained electrically powered hydraulic power packs serve as backups for the primary systems, instead of a secondary hydraulic system, saving weight and reducing maintenance. Soms worden meerdere gates gebruikt. As of November 2018, Air France was planning to return five of its A380s to lessors by the end of 2019 and refurbish its other five with new interiors by 2020 for $51 million per aircraft. [3] In 2016, The A380 development costs were estimated at $25 billion for 15 years,[30] $25–30 billion,[31] or €25 billion ($28 billion). In 2007 maakten onder andere Emirates, Air France-KLM, Singapore Airlines en Lufthansa hun interesse kenbaar.[16]. [48], On 14 February 2006, during the destructive wing strength certification test on MSN5000, the test wing of the A380 failed at 145% of the limit load, short of the required 150% level. [257] The A380 undercarriage consists of four main landing gear legs and one noseleg (a layout similar to that of the 747), with the two inboard landing gear legs each supporting six wheels. De A380 is ontworpen om in de zogenaamde '80 meter-box' te passen, en kan in principe op elke startbaan landen die geschikt is voor de Boeing 747-400. In juli 2016 besloot Airbus de productie van de A380 te halveren. The second model, the A380F freighter, would have carried 150 t (330,000 lb) of cargo over a range of 5,600 nmi (10,400 km). [297] On 12 June 2017, Fabrice Brégier confirmed that Airbus would not launch an A380neo, stating "...there is no business case to do that, this is absolutely clear." Among the production problems are challenging interiors, interiors being installed sequentially rather than concurrently as in smaller planes, and union/government objections to streamlining. [204] They have self-contained hydraulic and electrical power supplies. [8], Airbus kondigde in december 2014 aan misschien te stoppen met de productie van de A380. [6] Airbus stated that this cancellation would bring the A380's production to an end when the last unfilled orders are delivered in 2021. The reversers are electrically actuated to save weight, and for greater reliability than pneumatic or hydraulic equivalents. [182] This aluminium-glass-fibre laminate is lighter and has better corrosion and impact resistance than conventional aluminium alloys used in aviation. [337] By July 2019, Air France revised this plan and intended to phase out all ten of its A380s by 2022, replacing them with no more than nine twin-engined wide-body aircraft. De A380-800 is oorspronkelijk ontworpen om in drie klassen 550 passagiers te vervoeren of 853 in toestellen met uitsluitend stoelen in de economyclass. The cabin will have 36 business seats and 600 economy seats, with a 712-seat reconfiguration possible within five days. [184][185], Newer weldable aluminium alloys are used in the A380's airframe.
