The Airbus A380 took off for its inaugural display flight on Monday (13 June) at the Paris Air show.

The A380 had its maiden test flight in Toulouse in April 2005, but this was its first flight at an air show. The inaugural flight was witnessed by dignitaries, including French President Jacques Chirac. A380 display flights are planned for every day of the week-long show.
