The first A380 for Air France, has just left the hangar of Toulouse Airport.

It will be delivered after the last production controls and a battery of other tests are complete and it is given the official certification to fly commercially.

Air France has ordered 12 planes and has 2 options, the first being delivered during  2009.  Air France will be the first European operator of the A380.

On the first picture the plane registration is F-ERGG and on the second  picture it is F-FXYO. They  are the two first aircrafts to be delivered to Air France.  The A380 is expected to make it debut on the Paris (CDG) Montreal (YUL) route later this year.
