Why a BelugaXL ?
The Beluga ST cannot carry 2
A350 wings at the same time
Beluga ST Flight Hours
➢ A320 : ref
➢ A330 : x3
➢ A350 : x7
A system reaching its limits
➢ Up to 5 flights / day, 6 days / week
➢ 8600FH in 2017
➢ Road and sea transport less flexible and
more costly

Why a BelugaXL ?
Requirements:
➢ 2 A350 wings
➢ Compatible with existing infrastructures, jigs
and tools
➢ T/O & landing on all sites runways
➢ EIS in 2019
No existing solution on the market
The Beluga (ST & XL) cross
sections are much bigger than
those of all existing cargo A/C

Flight Test Installation
A lot of volume… but just a few pressurised▪ FTI equipment in non-pressurized area at low temperature need to
acclimatize up to room temperature.
▪ Flight Test Engineer station behind the cockpit.
▪ Seating capacity for 2 Flight Test Engineers (FTEs)
▪ Technical capacity to be shared between FTEs (no individual
means)
▪ No windows hence little external visibility video is key
▪ FTI Based on modular system and Remote Acquisition Units / Remote
Power System
▪ 917 on board measurements
▪ More than 90’000 parameters on the Flight Test Instrumentation
database
▪ 30 GB of data recorded per flight hour
