That was quick, Maybe it wasn't hot enough or they did everything in one day. Anyone know how long it took the A380? I don't know how the A380 hot weather tests were conducted but as far as the A350 is concerned, it is not the first time that some test are made thus may be explaining short tests this week. Also some hot weather tests were also performed in Eglin AFB. Actually, now it looks like a test flight, it's turning back. The flight number made me think it was heading back And an answer to my own question, the A380 spent a week at Al Ain during its 3rd visit. www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticle09.asp?xfile=data/theuae/2007/July/theuae_July742.xml§ion=theuae |

That is normal there and without even counting the effect of humidity which makes it feel even higher

I was born there and lived in the gulf for over 20 years of my life Ok ok ok, I will therefore stop arguing with you................... But just on the side note, current humidity in Al Ain is 9%; here near Paris, it is currently 47% and I feel quite dry so with 9%........ just brutal |

MSN 3 is in the air again as AIB352. She took off from Al Ain few minutes ago: fr24.com/AIB352It was a rather quick flight today; here what we can see on FR24 replay. May be she was too hot............   AIB352 - 20140614 - 2 par helios91_fr, sur Flickr |
