Airbus Shows New Airliners Though A330neo Misses Show

The A321neo, A350-1000 and A380 are all flying here, but the A330neo is still grounded

Meanwhile, show visitors will see the A321neo and A350-1000 making airborne debuts. Both types are in the certification flight testing phase. The "flagship" A380 will also be shown, both flying and static.
