Monday 11th January 2016
Flight# BGA151B, from Bremen to Toulouse
Tuesday 12th Janauary 2016
Flight# BGA151A, from Bremen to Toulouse
Either two sets of A330-Wings or one set for A350 (transported on two days).
With a rate from six A330 per month and five A350 we should see around of sixteen flights per month!
I will observe the flights over the next weeks and I will update this thread with the information one time per month
(always on the end of the month).
So we can see if the production is growing.

Yes, this is an excellent idea if you can do it. Yet, do you always know where the flight is from ? There are other Beluga transports from other factories.

Hi Philidor. I starts my observation on 1st Janauary 2016. Until now I have all flights. The flights for all location and all planes. Flights from Bremen (BRE) to Sevile (SVQ) are transport a wing-set or a fuselage for the A400M. So we can also see if the prduction for the A400M is growing  Example for today >>> Plane; from; to; Flight # F-GSTD; TLS; SVQ; BGA119B F-GSTB; TLS; XFW; BGA113B F-GSTA; TLS; CEG; BGA114A F-GSTC; TLS; SNR; BGA112C F-GSTF; CEG; MAD; BGA146F F-GSTD; SVQ; TLS; BGA191D F-GSTC; SNR; XFW; BGA123C F-GSTB; XFW; SNR; BGA132B F-GSTA; CEG; BRE; BGA145A F-GSTF; MAD; TLS; BGA161F Factory / Location >>> Manching / Ingolstadt (IGS) Toulouse (TLS) Saint Nazaire (SNR) Hamburg (XFW) Broughton/Chester (CEG) Hawarden Airport Bremen (BRE) Gedafe /Madrid (MAD) Base Aerea Militar Meaulte Albert/Bray (BYF) Nantes (NTE) Seville (SVQ) |

"What does the CEG to MAD flight carry ?"
Over the next weeks I will try to find out the possible charge for the flights.
Until now I can say following:
Flight from Bremen to Toulouse are wings for A350 (one wing) or A330 (one set).
Flight from Bremen to Seville are wings for A400M or a fuselage for the A400M.
Flight from Broughton/Chester (CEG) Hawarden Airport to Bremen are uncompleted wings (completed in Bremen)
Edit:
Bremen (BRE) >>>
wings A330, A350, A400M; fuselage A400M
Gedafe /Madrid (MAD) Base Aerea Militar >>>
horizontal tail plane (Gedafe)
Meaulte Albert/Bray (BYF) >>>
Production of nose section

CEG to anywhere are all wings. 1 single wing for A350, a pair of wings A330s, A320 family wings can go this way but I don't know how many at a time 1 or 2 pairs ?
A380 all wings go by ship.
A400M wing sections, 2 per wing, 4 for a whole plane are built at Filton Bristol and go by road, I guess to Breman ? For completion ?

Airbus would need French government to spend few bn EUR to make the Garonne river navigable up to TLS  There were for sure much worse spent taxpayers money .... |

I am not sure that could be done, at least for a reasonable amount of investment. The issue was considered before the A380 was launched, the outcome being that the government built a new public road, which is subject to traffic restrictions whenever an A380 convoy is in process. |

I did not know that. But it makes sense - there is a lot of discussion for building water way - Donau-Elbe - the guessing started in about 1880 and until know only every few years starts again and always the number rise dramatically.
New road even for heavy and oversize traffic must have cost only marginal part to that.
I wrote it meant as a joke...
