It’s Sunday again, so it must be time for some more Airplane Art.
This week, we have a Virgin Atlantic Airbus A350-1000 arriving at London Heathrow Airport as it pulls off the runway and heads off to Terminal 3 to unload its passengers.
Virgin Atlantic operates a fleet of 12 Airbus A350-1000 aircraft in its fleet (with a Premium and Leisure Configuration). They support the rest of the fleet, which comprises of Airbus A330-300, Airbus A330-900neo and Boeing 787-9 wide-body aircraft.
Together, they connect Virgin Atlantic passengers to their destinations.
This aircraft – G-VLUX joined the Virgin Atlantic fleet in August 2019. The aircraft has remained in service with the airline since then. It has been a busy bee, connecting London Heathrow to Lagos, Mumbai, Bridgetown, New York-JFK, Los Angeles and Orlando.
More Airplane Art next week!
