The first A380 for Thai
Airways International (THAI) took off for its maiden flight on 5th March
following completion of the airframe assembly and system tests in
Toulouse, France.
After a successful flight of more than four hours,
the aircraft landed in Hamburg, Germany, where it is entering the next
phase of production, covering cabin installation and painting.
THAI will become the ninth operator of the A380 when
it takes delivery of its first aircraft in the third quarter of 2012.
The airline has firm orders for six A380s and will operate the aircraft
on its premier routes from Bangkok to Europe.
