A big Bus - Airbus A380


Every sector has been seeing a revolution in technology and one such promising sector is Aircraft sector. The largest Aeroplane manufacturer has come out with the A380 models civilian plane which is a double decker which is a whopping 525 seater. It is a very spacious and an effecient airliner.

A380 is based on Environment Management System that always keeps a track of the airliner's impacton the environment. Some of the appreciable improvements in A380 are as follows,

. Low-noise characteristics, it is the quietest plane available
. Fuel effecient, burns 17% less compared to other airliners

It is less noisy because of the effecient engines and some external sound absorbers. It is veryeffecient in terms of CO2 emmissions as it burns less fuel and is also light weight. To put it in simple words, it is a gateway for future technologies to come.

Airbus A380 has been on demand by several countries and has so far supplied only to Singapore.Orders for around 300 planes have been sought by various countries and Airbus is in the process of manufacturing them for a huge sum. Lets hope more such planes rule the skies with brighter innovative ideas that are environmental friendly.
