Normally, an aircraft's fuselage and wings are attached together for life. But not in the case of the Airbus UpNext eXtra Performance Wing Demonstrator, which just reached a new milestone! The original wings have been removed in preparation for the installation of the eXtra Performance Wing. ⚒️ This will take place next year, followed by ground testing and then the very first test flights. ✈️ See how a wing removal works in the video below. | Airbus

Did you know an albatross can soar for several hundred kilometres without flapping its wings? This legendary bird has inspired the #AlbatrossOne – our remote-controlled aircraft demonstrator that is the first aircraft to trial in-flight, freely flapping wing-tips, which could help reduce drag and fuel burn. fly.airbus.com/IntroducingAlbatrossOne | Airbus
