The Airbus Beluga ST with registration F-GSTD has completed its last local flight at noon in Toulouse, concluding 27 years of transporting aircraft components.
As the fourth Beluga ST built, it operated throughout its career in Airbus’s internal logistics network.
The aircraft transitions out as the BelugaXL enters service to handle future component deliveries.
The flight marks the end of an era for the distinctive whale-shaped freighter in routine operations.
