The PLANE MAKERS: High-Tech Aircraft On The Assembly Line | Full Documentary 

who's here after Boeing has officially become everyone's second choice

So many complicated procedures....It's mindblowing

Always boggles my mind how Airbus and Boeing produce as many planes as they do . The scale of these facilities is amazing .

I worked in finkenwerder H61 FOR 5 YEARS . SUPERB . THANK YOU 🇩🇪 from India 🇮🇳

I am dumbfounded by the works , expertise , time and perfection to satisfy the needs of flying passengers and the commercial operators. Thanks in sharing your video and very educational and informative. Well done.

I work for airbus, building the wings. Amazing to watch it all being out together

Good see airbus workers taking pride and interest in what they do.

These guys do superb jobs as every country that flies aircraft has atleast one airbus in its fleet. Well done.

this documentary can only give a glimpse of the heroism I've seen these heroes do. Kudos to everyone on any aircraft engineering team

Wish I lived in Europe, I think Airbus would be an awesome company to work for. I think being a test pilot would be the most fun.

I'm finishing my industrial engineering masters and with no doubt work at airbus is a goal for my career

Amazing!!!

Thanks for wonderful detailed documentary, lots of love to Air bus company.

I reckon the steel machinery made in Germany is some of the best I have seen including various tools

WoW !..... Bravo !....Welcome You & thanks.

Outstanding. Thank you.

Excellent 🙏👏

Phenomenal.

4:19 You gotta love the Germans!!! I can bet you any money that this cushion this man is leaning on has a part number and a safety certificate! WELL DONE!

Excellent!!!

It really matters not if it is Airbus or Boeing this is an awesome feat by man.............. now, for the glueing together part of the wing.

Incredible.

I love this channel

Former Boeing Everett... where biggest aircraft in the world are built in biggest building in the world by best workforce in the world. Airbus is also biggest and best at what they do too. Much respect. Both companies have ceased production of their own largest aircraft. B747 and A380 are being replaced by slightly smaller, and more fuel efficient planes. Boeing is a leader in Lean Manufacturing. Just In Time (JIT) inventory arrival, continuous quality improvements, and many other techniques have been in place at Boeing for many years. 20 years ago, I was a Lean Manufacturing subject matter expert. We helped plants around the country including both commercial and military improve quality, reduce defects, shorten build times, and control costs. I have been at the beginning process of every aircraft when they start as an expensive pile of parts and up to final certifications. That includes 737, 747, 757, 767, and 777. I left before 787 was finalized. On military side it was F-15 Fighting Eagle and F/A -18 Super Hornet. I enjoy watching documentaries like this. It helps me stay current in aircraft manufacturing technologies regardless if Boeing or Airbus. Both companies play important roles in commercial and military aircraft production.

Love the towbar at 37:53

Fantastic 👍👍👍

Damn, I never new Airbus has a “Dreamliner” too. Man they are really competitive

Superb

The Belugas seems so interesting to me but no one is talking about it I really wish to see some kind of documentary about it have so many questions I wish to be answered

I love doing factory work. It's demanding and hard work. This factory would be no exception. I do believe that I would like to work here.

the amount of time and effort these boys put into the smallest details of each plane is exactly why airbus is 100x better and safer than boeing

Tanks for your job

quality is very well. Air bus one class

ধন্যবাদ thanks for the upload

Love it

BEAUTIFUL!! SALUDOS "JERMAINE" FROM : NEW YORK, GOOD JOB BROO..THE VIDEO IS MUY INTERESANTE & EDUCATIVO..

Good channel

25:26 Amazing those wings weigh onky 2.6 tons each and not only do they contain multiple tons of fuel , have engines weighing 7.2 tons each hanging off of their underside which are capable of exerting a combined 88 tons force of lateral push / thrust on them but also lift the A350 which fully loaded weighs 322 tons . It's crazy that they are just roughly 32 meter cantilevers jutting out off the fuselage.

So cool

Good

4:25 There was a time in my life when I could have moved easily through that opening. Now I'm so old and fat that I'd get stuck and they'd go ahead and attach the wing with me still inside. I'll do my best to remain quiet during the flight, but on the long haul flights, if one of the passengers could pass down a gin and tonic to me I would appreciate it.

Long live Airbus,

I make the pylons, for A350 NEO. CNC, and some conventional work (boring/slotting).

Realy I like this factory

This video is fantastic, well put together and definitely worth watching. However, I am partially deaf so in addition to listening to the narrative I need to also read the subtitles to follow bits of narrative that I didn't quite catch. The English subtitles of this video appear to have been automatically generated by computer because there are dozens and dozens of ridiculous errors. They don't even get the start and finish of a sentence correct. I can understand (and support) using auto generated subtitles but after the subtitles have been generated couldn't somebody please watch the video and correct all the errors.

No one makes better planes than Europeans.

Donde puedo ver estos documentales en español o subtitulado

The last time German workers built aircraft for France, things went very differently.

Quite a contrast between the interior of the EasyJet plane and the Emirates plane!

If anyone from AFAB at avc is watching this GANG GANG my guy let’s get this bread.

GERMANY RISING intro is amazing btw

46:16 the soundrack here sounds litteraly like from: Tron Legacy (the movie) 🙂

Was there a few weeks ago on the airbus factory tour. 2,5 hrs the tour will take.

Is "flow line" some type of of term Pilots use? Because if not they should change it to jet stream...

I understand a time table but pushing people to hard to finish something that can "fall out of the air" might not be the best idea.

Faster and cheaper. Perfect!

I am proud as a European that my indigenous aerospace industry has taken the battle to the American giants so effectively after so long as the also rans! However, having spent time on both Ryanair (737) and to a lesser extent on EasyJets (A320) fleets and I have noticed distinct differences in my perceptions of the passenger experience. I know that the Airbus product is state of the art with cutting edge materials and systems technologies giving efficiencies and cost savings to their respective operators. Interestingly though the superficial perceptions to a non aeronautical engineer, like myself, are perhaps misleading. The Boeing planes feel robust, if basic, but the differing construction appears to affect the admittedly subjective feel of the flight experience. The 320 airframes being of a more composite based unitary construction transmit operational noises much more readily. One hears the undercarriage, braking and flap operating systems more readily and taxiway surface noise is transmitted to the passenger compartment intrusively. To me, the sense of the 320 galley area on the examples I Have experience was much more bargain basement in appearance. I am sure this is not going to pass without comment but if honest, I prefer the Boeing experience on a purely superficial passenger perception basis. That Boeing has moved so swiftly to answer the completion must speak volumes about the Airbus package and that it has not gone as well as they may have hoped is perhaps sad. The two giants keep each other on their respective toes and drive technology forward apace.

7. DIFFERENT CONSTRUCTION SITES 7 IT IS A MAGIC NUMBER

Wow, surprised how small the site is. But I live in Everett.

Unlike what stopped the construction of the Tower of Babel the construction of gigantic airplanes works perfectly with so many different languages

I didn't know Howie Mandal worked for airbus

✈️I AM VERY IMPRESSED THIS IS QUITE A OPERATION 👍 ALL THE PEOPLE GET ALONG 🕴️🕴️ IT SEEMS LIKE THEY HAVE A JOB TO DO AND THEY ARE DOING IT THE BEST THEY CAN DO IT👥 A LOT OF INSPECTORS 👀👀 CHECKING UP THAT'S GOOD VERY CLEAN PLACE👋 WHEN FINISHED THE PLANES LOOK AMAZING😊 THEY TEST EACH PLAN FOR HOURS 🕑🌍THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO THANKS FOR SHARING 👍👍🇺🇸 .🛫

I need the books

Its so sad to see the A380 go, but the point to point model is just better for airlines and passengers then the hub and spoke.

nearly 2 years into COVID social distancing, this looks kinda quaint - as I say regularly 'remember when we used to travel ?' sad near the end too - the 380 was once the future - now since a lack of orders ... 😮‍💨😷😞

What the heck is this guy exacly measuring?!?!😱😨 6:01?????

I’ve been flying Boeing aircraft and previously Douglas DC8 for 27 years. Boeing has been disappointing recently but they will fix themselves and innovate and produce good aircraft again.

This fantastic success can be a showcase for European countries to work together mutch more. We can beat China an the US on the world stage if we join strength.

How sad it is, to see the A 380 discontinued. 🤔😥🙁🇩🇰🙋🏻‍♂️

What course should I take if I want to assemble an aircraft?

A350 hat Schubkraft pro Triebwerk von 351,5 KN bis 431,5 KN ; Tankkapazität von 129.000 L bis 165.000 L und Passagierkapazität von 280 bis 366. TVC hat eine ganzen neuen elektrischen Speichertechnologie, welche mit der sehr hohen Energiedichte und niederigem Verkaufpreis hat, entwickelt und schon bei Patentamt im Jahr 2020 angemeldet. Wir suchen nun den Investor für den elektrischen Antrieb mit den Leistungen von 1 KW bis 2000 KW mit der TVC-Batterie bis zu 30 MWh zu produzieren. Antrieb mit der Leistung von 2000 KW entspricht ca. 200 KN, sodass eines Flugzeug A350 den 4 genannten elektrischen Triebwerks-200x mit der gesammten Masse von Energieversorgungssystems unter 60.000 Kg zu haben braucht.

This is not Boeing Assembly plant in NORTH CHARLESTON! Diese kinde est sehr professional!

Heh, back in the olde days of aviation.

And we questioned why we discontinuing the A3 80 Airbus

好酷啊

Does the transport of several major components from six or more locations, encompassing 1000+ kilometers not enhance the cost of the finished product? The network is massive and coordinating production and supply between all the above must be a logistic nightmare A thought I'm struggling with

That’s where my plane was built

2:00 Hopefully not compromising on safety like Boeing.

I didn't know the singer of 'Disturbed' worked in an a airline factory. Who knew?

12:28 B787 should be listening to this about removing debris.

How are those small bolts able to hold the wings on to the fuselage? It just doesn't seem like that connection would be strong enough, especially after the engines are hung.

They only build the A380 fuselage in Hamburg, they don't put in the interiors like you said.

The majestic bird went on hibernation

I thought there was only one airbus building plant based in tolouse.

looks like their building a plane for Hawaiian airlines

18:45 geezuz crisis the scale of things at that point of view...

No doubts, German "Welt" ('world') is of the same origin with "Welle" ('wave'). What kind of waves does that broadcaster emits when so many "Helden" ('heroes') of this movie became bald?

Right I mean the A380 Airbus why is it being discontinued it's an awesome aircraft

Fascinating to see. Welt documentaries are amazing to watch, but the more recent ones have better voice overs/ and voice production. The voices and voice over person not great on this one. :(

That paint job in retrospect...maybe not the best.

Airbus showing Boeing how its done again...no shitty e mails to each other what a load of crap were building

Do some prison documentaries . They're on fire here on RU-vid.

Shane they don't have any reason to biuld anymore planes

Tr si neden yok

And according to this video why are we decreasing to a smaller Airbus when you have it right the first time

I see fly shit in the in my paint job, repaint it!

I‘m confused because you keep saying engineers and mean mechanics. I don’t think the words can be used simultaneously. The work of the mechanics differs from the work of the engineers.

“aircraft” CC: animal team!

Curious how former Spark or Free Documentary videos are being reissued under the Welt brand. Their strange use of the so-called English language continues despite this. In particular I continue to be puzzled as to what they mean by 'monuments' and upper wing covers.
