Airbus Beluga XL
The Airbus Beluga XL is a planned large transport aircraft based on the A330-200 airliner, to be the successor to the Airbus Beluga. The XL has an extension on the fuselage top like the Beluga. It is being designed, built and will be operated by Airbus to move oversized aircraft parts. The program was launched in November 2014 to build five aircraft, with 30% more capacity than the existing five Belugas. It will be able to carry two A350 XWB wings instead of one. The design freeze was announced on 16 September 2015, final assembly should start in 2017, and service should begin in 2019.
