The first Airbus A380 for Air France has emerged from the Toulouse final assembly hall. This picture, revealed by Flightblogger, shows the otherwise green A380 (MSN033) with an Air France coloured fin.

The aircraft, which is currently engineless, will be equipped with four Engine Alliance GP7200s and then flown to Hamburg for cabin furnishing.

Air France plans to equip its A380s with a relatively dense 538-seat cabin in a three-class layout. The upper deck will hold 186 seats - 80 business class and 106 economy. On the main deck there will be 352 seats - nine first class and 343 economy.
