Monday, September 3, 2007
AIRBUS'S new super jumbo will fly over Hong Kong today, heralding the start of Asia's largest airshow, with the industry set to vie for slices of India's and China's booming markets.
The double-decker A380 is due to pass over the city's Victoria Harbour, an airspace normally reserved for helicopters, at around 1,000 feet (300 metres), marking the beginning of the four-day show.
Asian Aerospace International Expo and Congress will see 500 exhibiting companies from more than 20 countries and 10,000 trade visitors in the city to scrutinise the latest industry developments, Expo organisers said.AFP
