Qantas has released the first images of the Airbus jet that will fly non-stop from London Heathrow to Sydney, currently under construction in Toulouse. The programme to launch the world’s longest flight is known as “Project Sunrise”.
It uses a specially configured Airbus A350-1000, with an additional 20,000 litre rear centre fuel tank. The plane will be capable of flying for 22 hours without refuelling.
