About

Videos from the world’s most popular flight tracking service—avgeek videos, airline operations, tutorials, and more! Flightradar24 is a global flight tracking service that provides you with real-time information about thousands of aircraft around the world. Flightradar24 combines data from several data sources including ADS-B, MLAT and radar data. Our service is available online and for your iOS or Android device. Flightradar24 was started as a hobby project in 2006 when two Swedish aviation geeks decided to build a network of ADS-B receivers in Northern and Central Europe. In 2009 we opened up the network, and made it possible for anyone with an ADS-B receiver to upload data to the network. Many parts of the world were quickly covered, but the quest to provide global ADS-B coverage is still ongoing.

Video Description

We've got an all-access pass to the A320 assembly lines at the Airbus facilities at Hamburg-Finkenwerder (XFW). That includes a very special look at A321XLR assembly and some of its most unique aspects including the Rear Center Tank (RCT), the innovative fuel tank that helps it fly as far as it does. We've also got full tours of the A320 structure and final assembly lines, looking in-depth at what it takes to build an A320 from start to finish. And especially the long-range A321s that have become the Hamburg specialty, which usually require more complex installations of cabins and more.
