The Airbus A380 is a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine jet airliner manufactured by the European corporation Airbus, a subsidiary of EADS. It is the world's largest passenger airliner and, due to its size, many airports have had to expand their facilities to properly accommodate it. The Farnborough International Airshow is a seven-day international trade fair for the aerospace industry and held every two years in mid-July, known as the home of British aviation, held since there since 1948. The show is usually attended by more than 1,300 exhibitors and 150,000 trade visitors.
