A350 XWB first flight - best of 14 June 2013 

Today ,It's been 10 years of A350's first flight. And now she is one of the most popular aircraft models from Airbus.

Love Airbus, Love Boeing..... Evolution never stops, Greatful for the Two

Wow. I remember watching this 10 years ago today...people around me had been working on this for 7 years. It was an emotional day 💙💙💙

The joy on their faces is the reflection of their hard work, their commitment towords their work, kudos to the team .

love how the winglets are blended and flow with the wing

A350 is just amazing!

I'm German, I'm European, I'm proud on this most innovative aircraft, build in Europe. The A350XWB is the best Aircraft, I AM PROUD ON AIRBUS

A truly historical moment in aviation history! :')

Can't just people STFU about one Aircraft being better than the other ? Every flying machine is an engineering marvel, every machine has it's pros and cons !

7 years today and this video still gives me hope to fulfill my dreams 😄😄

A group of professionals, working days and nights, all striving for a common goal, and succeed. This is already beautiful.

Congratulations to the A350 team ! A beautiful airplane and a great take-off. What an emotional moment, very proud of Airbus - vive l'Europe !

A really good flight, good images and thanks to all the team for this amazing flight, THANKS AIRBUS!

Beautiful plane! My new favorite plane!

Looks great, hope it gets a better start than the dreamliner :)

Wonderful job, Airbus!!! can't wait to see it in service.

congratulation AIRBUS and thank you for giving us the most beautiful airliner ever ... the A350 XWB.

Thanks airbus for those very good aircrafts

Beautiful!

Def worth the wait! Airbus has done an outstanding job. What a beautiful plane. Congrats this is only the beginning!

I like A350 Series! JAL‘s A350-900 will be introduced on the Japanese domestic routes in 2019.

Beautiful aircraft, and beautiful video. Never flown an Airbus but this makes me want to get on this plane ASAP!

Endlich! Ich konnte heute Nacht kaum schlafen vor Aufregung! Many happy landings and best wishes

Wow! This is the future of the world! This is amazing! Great job, Airbus! Hopefully you create more new aircraft's. I like this so much. I just noticed that there aren't any smoke coming out of the landing gear when it has finally touched down.

I like the shape of the wingtips

again.. another great step in human history, I'm proud on AIRBUS, a fantastic airplane!

Thanks for a wonderful video.... Im considering this as a video gift for me cause June 14 is my Birthday Thanks Airbus you made me cry....Tears of Happiness and excitement for a new bird in the sky!

Airbus and Boeing are two amazing companies and their constant competition results in superb new innovative aircraft which are beautiful to watch!

what a beautiful aircraft! can't wait for the first commercial flight! congrats airbus!

Why does the airplane has its gear down for such a long time? is that for some sort of test?

Love this and the 787. But how to the window shade work? Is it a button? Or is it auto

Remembering.... LOVE AIRBUS

2:14 That is an amazing shot of the beautiful Airbus A350, especially that winglet

Congratulations Airbus! What a beautiful plane :)

what's the name of the background music? So far, more than 10 people asked the same question and we still have no clue. :-\

What a beauty bird

I was born on this day. I didn't know that the A350 flew that time, and it was awesome.

Ok, but do you know why pilots do dot retract the landing gear after taking off in test flights?

Thank you man ! You made my day ! :)

Congratulations Airbus A350 Team! VIVE L'AIRBUS! VIVE L'A350!! VIVE LA FRANCE!!! :D Can't wait to fly on it!!!

Great design. Surprise being a competitor of the 777. Size similar, the landing gear has only 4 tires instead of 6 the 777?

great engineering...you're the best!!!

when testing a new airliner for the first time,if need be,how do the test crew parachute out?

It is for safety reasons, so that if any problems are encountered they can quickly land. And as the first flight went pretty well, they were retracted after several minutes from take-off :)

One of my favorite airplanes 👌🏼👍🏼

it's an amazing teamwork and work of art! I feel so lucky i could be the witness of this memorable moment! Hope one day i could work in this cockpit :P

Our baby, our pride!!! :)) LOVE A350!!!

They dont have an ejection seat? what if the plane crash at its first flight?

Great job! The plane looks very nice. The cockpit and the sharklets I like most. Fantastic video too!

Sem palavras..... magnifico.... parabéns.... explêndido...... maravilhoso....

Why they no retract the landing gear? Please reply! O.O

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

Can anybody tell me, whats the difference between these engines and the trent 900.. Is the trent more power and these more efficiency based?

Yes, they have announced that. They were absolutely sure about it. What a wunderful plane.

Why was the gear down during the whole flight?

What is the name of the track?

I saw it landing today at 2pm at Toulouse airport . At work everyone stopped working to see it landing. The weather was beautiful a great day!

What's the reason for the gear staying down?

Another beautiful airplane, hope to see it soon arriving at LAX.

Does anybody know why the pilot did not retract the landing gear just after the plane took off?

Why did it fly with the gear down?

why were the landing gear down for so long at that altitude

Just amazing !! Good job Airbus ingeniors and good job the pilots !!!!! Congratulations guys !!

Congratulations Airbus, aircraft manufacturing is taking a whole new level_good competion for the B787 Dreamliner.

that landing was perfect ... great first flight

Whats the difference to other planes?

No problem,my mother was Brazilian and I spent some time in your country to visit relatives several times.My first language is Arabic.English is my second language,third is French and I'm studying Portuguese on my own because my mother never taught me.I can only write in Portuguese using a translator or with someone's help.My Portuguese is poor.By the way,I'm going to Brazil next month.See you around.

That really motivated me to fly

What´s the soundtrack of this video?

What a beautiful plane!!!! Speechless...

Both of them are awesome, and in fact any airplane is awesome as long as they fly beautifully :)

Congratulations Airbus once again a beautiful plane. Although i am Boeing fan but i really like this model and A380.

Great to see her finally fly you should all be very proud , I will look forward to hopefully seeing a RR Derby flypast in the coming months.

Congratulation ! ... Beautiful flight.

It's been Five years.

Congratulations Airbus... she really is a beautiful bird!! I'm so proud of you...

5 years working on the project, very proud day today.

great plane and beautiful a350 WXB

that war will never end :), its just got more interesting !!!!!

Why did they keep the gear out so long?

Indeed, this is Europe as its best, working together, innovating together goig forward together!

What's the name of the song in the background? Greetings

It's done on purpose like other plane first flight (787 for example). They tested the gear later in the video (2:09)

I would be the happiest man if i get a job to build or fly a plane like that... nice one AirBus

Nice plane, and nice music... who plays it???

Very Slick, well done airbus! heres to many years of safe efficient service, Salut!

Well said hagios9. I'm a fan of both Boeing and Airbus and I think there's nothing wrong with that.

The nose is not the same at all. The a350 has a more pointy nose. The wings are not even close! The a350 has much bigger wings and the flex of it with the winglet makes it much different from the 787.

the obvious question nobody asks: why did it not retract the landing gear?

The start of what I like to call 'The eyeliner Airbuses'

what exactly is copied? I bet I can list more differences than you can list similarities, let alone copies.

So, building the first widebody twinjet wasn't a "landmark"? Or the 2 man glass-cockpit?

Incrível! simplesmente incrível!

Fantasticooooo gracias compañeros.

Such an awesome airplane!

Why can’t it be a350-1000?

I like this just a tad-bit over the 787. Those winglets are awesome, and have you seen videos of the inside? This is coming from an un-biased person, I love Airbus and Boeing just as much.

Incredible airplane,amazing job,congratulations Airbus !

Wheels up on a maiden flight?

Does anyone know the song name?
