It's not every day you get to see an airplane wing be removed! ⚒️ Normally, an aircraft's fuselage and wings are attached together for life. But in the unique case of the @Airbus UpNext eXtra Performance Wing Demonstrator, the current wings must be removed from the demonstrator aircraft to allow for the installation of the eXtra Performance Wing. Check out this video to see how a wing removal works! 🥽 And stay tuned: while this may have been the demonstrator's biggest transformation to date, we aren't done yet. Next up? Attaching the eXtra Performance Wing and doing ground testing before the first test flights. ✈️

"B737 freighter landed with fuel exhaustion imminent because centre fuel tank pumps were switched off for whole flight. The distractions of a last-minute change to the departure runway and an impending airport curfew very likely contributed to the omission." https://lnkd.in/d3QgGDny #humanfactors #flightsafety
