This is the story of the largest passenger airliner ever built, the Airbus A380.
Highlights include historic film of its first flight at Toulouse in April 2005, spectacular footage of its maiden UK arrival at Heathrow Airport in May 2006 and a dramatic fly-past over the Bristol area.
Airbus clearly believe that big planes - not more frequent flights - will be the preferred way to handle large numbers of fliers in the future. Their new double-deck, four-engined airliner, the Airbus A380, is designed to provide the solution.
This presentation is a tribute to a record-breaking aircraft, which is poised to set new boundaries in worldwide aviation.
