Airbus A380 Makes North American Debut

The world’s largest passenger jet, the double-decker Airbus A380, landed in Iqaluit, Nunavut, Canada Monday for cold-weather testing, according to a CBC news story. Built in Toulouse, France, Airbus’s 555-passenger plane—the CBC has an excellent graphic and slide show—has already been tested for high altitudes in South America and for high temperatures in the Middle East.
