Airbus has overtaken Boeing with its A380, the world's largest jetliner, designed to meet the growing demand for long-haul flights. The A380 can carry up to 1000 passengers in some configurations and is aimed at markets in Asia and the Middle East. It features powerful and efficient Rolls Royce engines.
