Well, that ends years of speculation then. I first reported on the rumour of 002 going to Aeroscopia on Jan 5 2015 and on the end of 004 at Farnborough last year. Good to see they are preserved. Wonder now where 001 might go one day...

It should finally go to Le Bourget. Hopefully in many years after doing a lot of neo-preparation work.
It's good to see Airbus not forgetting their landmark products anymore like they sort of did with the A300 back then. They should talk to Iran to get some "real" A300B from Iran Air back.

Yes but I was talking about the future of A380 MSN1 which is still active and will remain so for quite some time.

I admit there was a confusing string of quoted quotes before.
