Chris takes a trip to Airbus Defence and Space in Seville, Spain to see what goes into building the latest generation of European military transporter, the Airbus A400M.
Today we join an Air France A220 crew on a rotation from Paris CDG to Copenhagen and back to Paris again, on the flight deck – documenting everything in this beautiful new airplane from the jumpseat.
Come spend the afternoon with us and the Airbus BelugaXL, the behemoth transport aircraft that is key to the Airbus industrial supply chain and yes, looks a whole lot like a Beluga. Highlight of the day: we got to pet the thing.
Welcome to a bonus video with extra pilot knowledge and insights from our Airbus A330neo flight deck ride on Condor’s Frankfurt–Mauritius service
We got a grand tour of Airbus’s Customer Definition Centre (CDC) in Hamburg — a 10,000-square-meter hub where airline teams spend days designing every last detail of their cabins. From lighting and seating layouts to full-scale cabin mockups with lavatories and crew rest areas, nothing is left to chance.
We’ve got an all-access pass to the A320 assembly lines at the Airbus facilities at Hamburg-Finkenwerder (XFW). That includes a very special look at A321XLR assembly and some of its most unique aspects including the Rear Center Tank (RCT), the innovative fuel tank that helps it fly as far as it does.
Today Gabe is flying London Heathrow to Philadelphia onboard the brand new American Airlines 787-9 (78P) with its Flagship Business suite.
Join us behind the scenes at London City Airport and discover what goes in to operating this unique airport in the heart of London.
Today is another fun day in Mongolia with airside access at UBN, Ulaan Baatar’s new airport opened just a few years ago.
Ever wanted to join the pre-flight outside check of an A330neo about to head out on a 10-hour flight? Now’s your chance, as we join Condor Captain Björn Freitag for a detailed inspection and pre-flight walkaround of the aircraft under his command today, operating DE2314 from Frankfurt (FRA) to Mauritius (MRU). This is the full experience with no detail left uncovered. A great insight into the key systems and sensors of this beautiful Airbus.
Today we’re flying in the cockpit with Hunnu Air again, this time on the Embraer 190 on a domestic roundtrip to Murun Airport (MXV) in Mongolia’s beautiful north, not far from the Russian border. We’re on board with the lovely Hunnu crew and get to see what Mongolian domestic operations look like with all the usual flight deck fun plus a walkaround in between the flights.
In this very special video we’re onboard Condor’s A330NEO with the pilots documenting the nearly 11-hour flight from Frankfurt (FRA) to Mauritius (MRU) from the jumpseat. With a crew that is especially eager to explain the inner workings of the aircraft and everything to do with a flight like this, and a very interesting route out over Cairo and much of East Africa before heading out over the Indian Ocean, this is a truly memorable learning experience full of great aviation knowledge and beautiful views on a full moon evening too!
Today we’re on a very special flying adventure with Hunnu Air, a privately-owned airline in Mongolia, in the cockpit of their brand new Embraer E2 from Ulaan Baatar (UBN) to Almaty, Kazakhstan (ALA) and back.
