Q. The Belugas fly past me To / from broughton nearly every day or two a day sometimes !, how many wing sets can they pick up ? A320, A330, A350 ? Or a mixture ? I'm not sure how many A320 wings they can take but I believe they can carry 2 A330 wings but only 1 A350 wing at a time. At a production rate of 10 A350s a month that would need 20 Beluga trips a month ? Not sure the NEW beluga will be ready in time? |

Are we telepathic???  Great minds think alike  Beluga can carry 4 A320 wings/ 2 wing sets. Stillage used to be mounted. |

PS if we could work out how many A320/A330/A350 wings are needed each month, and the number of flights the Belugas do to North Wales ? Some mathematician should have a formula for that  ? We did do a lot of work at Broughton to ensure wing load time was always being challenged...much like F1 pitstops...but slower! |

My other passion F1, slower but 4 wings are a lot bigger and heavier, and dare I say it but wings more important than a wheel !!!! |

The Wizz lettering on the front is very unclear. They need to fill the letters in rather than leaving them as an outline!
