      Hi Zak, your right about it being an A380. I have checked on http://www.airframes.org/ and it comes back as Airbus test flight /manufacturer test reg (temp) the call sign AIB refers to AIrbus Industries ( B might stand for Build ) and 046 is the number off the production line. Airframes.org give the registration as F-WWAG most likely destined for Air France.

        Be careful not to jump to the wrong conclusion. Airbus rotates that F-WWAG registration, a bit like automotive trade licence plates.

        There's a photo of F-WWAG taken at Hamburg on 27 July 2010, an Emirates A388. The callsign AIB046H correlates to the construction number 046.

        This should be delivered to Emirates on 12 August as A6-EDL.

          Thanks for that Anmer, i did read on a Northern Germany Club Forum that the aircraft was destined for Emerates but me not knowing about the trade plate system took it that Airframes was spot on. You live and learn, lol.
