Over the past 40 years of our presence here in the country, we have come a long way in establishing trustful partnerships with the Chinese civil aviation community, and we look forward to writing the next chapters of our future together," said Airbus CEO Guillaume Faury. The new line will enable Airbus to significantly increase production close to its customers in China and beyond. It complements the global Airbus production network of - now - ten Final Assembly Lines - four in Hamburg (Germany), two in Toulouse (France), two in Mobile (United States), and two in Tianjin (China). Preparations to assemble the first aircraft are underway, and full operation of the facility is targeted for early 2026, the OEM said.
