0Here’s another one, used to carry Airbus aircraft parts from Toulouse to Bordeaux; looks like a 1/2 scale model. Probably very light stuff!

Airbus has the most odd transport arrangements. Why not just put more stuff in an ordinary artic, and do fewer trips? It’s not as if they have to react to rapidly-changing demand- their factories respond to huge orders, and the product has a long lead-time to delivery. It’s the same with the wings for the planes- instead of using a boat to ship them from Broughton to the place where the fuselage is made, they have actually cobbled together an special plane to fly them there. They must have money to burn. I recommend that they appoint a haulage contractor to their board of directors. :laughing:
