More than three years after the company stopped producing its double-decker A380 aircraft, Airbus is now using this jumbo-jet as a test-bed for new aviation technologies. The A380 test aircraft flew for some three hours on March 25 using Sustainable Aviation Fuel for one of its four engines. Airbus ZEROe demonstrator aircraft took off from Amsterdam at 8:43 am local time in the morning.
