Air France Airbus A-380 starts service at Dulles

Just before two Monday afternoon, the world’s largest passenger jet, an Air France Airbus A-380, rolled down the runway at the Washington-Baltimore Dulles Airport.

Rob Yingling, of the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, said a new fueling pit was installed to accommodate the extra fueling capacity on the Airbus. A few taxi-way signs were moved as well.

One of the things they also had to change at Dulles were the jet ways. Since the Airbus has two floors, there are now two separate jet ways for both the lower and upper levels.
