A350 Facts you should know

  • The A350 is the first Airbus aircraft with both fuselage and wing structures made primarily of carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer.
  • Airbus suggested Boeing's use of composite materials for the B787 fuselage was premature, and that the new A350 XWB was to feature large carbon fibre panels for the main fuselage skin.
  • In June 2011, the A350-900 was scheduled to enter service in the first half of 2014, with the -800 to enter service in mid-2016, and the -1000 in 2017.
  • The three main variants of the A350 were launched in 2006, with entry into service planned for 2013. At the 2011 Paris Air Show, Airbus postponed the entry into service of the A350-1000 by two years to mid-2017.
