Default AirBus Beluga.

Does anybody know when and where it takes off and lands.

It goes over my house and sons nursery every now and again and my son is fascinated by it.

I would like to take him to see it land and take off, so where is it?

Also I will need takeoff and landing times if possible as I dont want to travel to see it parked up.

Cheers Yoza

It picks up wings from the Airbus factory at Broughton (Hawarden airfield - few miles west of Chester) and takes them to Toulouse. I don't spose it runs to any particular timetable but you could try phoning Airbus and asking when it's next going out.

try to call the airfield operations (prob via google) and most likely they can tell you the times when it is expected

I think the barges from Mostyn are just for the A380 wings as they won't fit in the Beluga. I wonder how they carry them over land to the dock.
