The First Airbus A380 Super-Jumbo to Be Sent for Recycling
- Limited-edition collector tags made from A380’s outer skin
- Retired double-decker broken up in France for spare parts
The first Airbus SE A380 super-jumbo to enter commercial service, a plane meant to revolutionize air travel and now being broken up for spare parts, is returning to the skies in an altogether more diminutive form: luggage tags.
The limited-edition collectors’ items crafted from the aluminum skin of the world’s biggest commercial airliner are on sale for 27.95 euros ($30.19) each through specialist retailer Aviationtag.
