New Assembly line show and tell
Search engines are dangerous :) Someone left a PPT on the Airbus webserver. It looks like it was part of the presentation package used to round up customers. Whoever made it fell for the old "Powerpoint shrinks my images" gag, so if you pry them loose, they're really good. Some nice shots of the laser welders and wing assembly rings in there.

Interesting tidbit: the wing skin assembler can accommodate pieces up to 136m. A390 anyone?

The whole thing is 10.5 MB. I've extracted the photos to JPGs. If there's anyone else interested I can roll them up and post them someplace.
