They make this HUGE airplane here. It holds 550 people, & usually is used for very long flights.
The tour is clever: you start in a dark room (a sort of cockpit with computers) & you see a video of the first take-off in 2005. Then you see the "testing" area, where there were 3 almost finished aircraft lined up in a row. Then another video, in fast motion, of the assembly of the airplanes. The parts come from Germany, Spain, the UK, & France. They estimate that with all the "helpers", Airbus is responsible for 60,000 people in Toulouse.
