- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- The Airbus A380-800, adorned in the “Emirates Airlines – 50th Anniversary of UAE” livery and registered as A6-EVG, is a majestic representation of both the world’s largest passenger aircraft and Emirates Airlines’ celebration of the United Arab Emirates’ 50th anniversary. This superjumbo has played a central role in Emirates’ fleet, epitomizing the airline’s commitment to delivering unparalleled luxury, efficiency, and innovation to its passengers.
- The Airbus A380-800 is celebrated for its impressive size and performance. A6-EVG was powered by four Engine Alliance GP7200 engines, each generating a remarkable 70,000 pounds of thrust. This extraordinary power enabled the aircraft to achieve a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of around 1.2 million pounds (560,000 kilograms). Cruising at a speed of approximately 560 knots (645 mph or 1,040 km/h), the A380-800 provided passengers with a spacious, comfortable, and efficient long-haul travel experience.
- Adorned with golden graphics along with a very prominent number 50 decorating the front of the fuselage to celebrate the 50th anniversary – Golden Jubilee – of the United Arab Emirates – this Emirates A380 not only commemorates and symbolizes the UAE’s success, ambition, and innovation, it proudly honors the world’s connection to Dubai over the past five decades through its skies.
- Having been developed by Airbus in 1990 as a viable contender to the Boeing 747, which had gone unchallenged since its inception in the 1960’s, the Airbus A380 is a four engine jet that went into service in 2007 as the world’s largest, long-range, wide-body passenger airliner, and because it is the only full-length, double-deck aircraft to ever be produced, it can typically be configured to seat from 525 passengers up to a maximum capacity of 853 passengers. Production of the Airbus A380 ended in December 2021 with a total of 251 having been produced.
- The “Emirates Airlines – 50th Anniversary of UAE” livery on A6-EVG was a spectacular manifestation of both the airline’s pride in its home country and its commitment to marking the UAE’s significant milestone. This iconic livery served as a tribute to the Emirates and the UAE’s shared history of growth, progress, and global achievement.
- This meticulously crafted replica captures the essence of the aircraft, from its immense size to the iconic branding. For those who appreciate the significance of the A380-800 in redefining long-haul travel and Emirates Airlines’ dedication to providing passengers with an exceptional and world-class experience, this 1:200 scale model is an essential addition to any collection. Display it with pride and celebrate the legacy of innovation, luxury, and the shared history of Emirates Airlines and the United Arab Emirates.
