Airbus delivers 10,000th aircraft

Some 42 years after the company delivered its first aircraft, an A300 to Air France, Airbus has handed over the keys to its 10,000th airframe, an A350-900 to long-time customer Singapore Airlines (SIA).

The milestone event took place at Airbus headquarters in Toulouse on Friday (European time), with the ceremony attended by SIA group chief executive Goh Choon Phong and Airbus top management, along with invited media and other guests.

The A350-900 MSN 56 9V-SMF, featured a special 10,000th aircraft logo on the fuselage and is SIA’s sixth of 67 A350s the Star Alliance member has on order.

SIA have a habit of picking up the hallmark aircraft.
They got the 100th B747-400 too, if I remember correctly?
