Living near Hamburg, Germany and working in the city (pre Covid) I saw it quite often when it approached for landing at the Airbus facility.
Compared to all other air traffic going to the regular airport it definitely looks quite interesting, when in flight. I actually enjoy seeing it as something of engineering ingenuity.
When my SO and me bought our house the seller was working at Airbus and told me that he found it pleasant to fly in as a passenger when he needed to visit the French facility for work.
- Simon_O_Rourke 5y agoI saw it one afternoon coming in to land at Hamburg, and I initially thought I'd had one too many Astra beers. It's definitely unique looking, but the roll rate and noise don't appear too unusual.

- benhurmarcel 5y ago> he found it pleasant to fly in as a passenger when he needed to visit the French facility for work He must have worked there a long time, Airbus haven’t done that for decades.
- sdoering 5y agoI am not absolutely sure if he flew to the French site with the Beluga or if this were different situations I mixed up. He told both. Him flying to France and him finding the Beluga experience pleasant. So maybe it was me mixing things up.
