THANKS to our 300,000 Visitors & 800,000 Pages

 

 

PREPA PLS ANGLAIS was born on May 13, 2008. It was dedicated to aeronautical and military English. It was just a kind of a draft for training, and teaching purpose at that time.

The blog moved, then turned into a website pattern. Counters aren’t liable at all. However, and even though the traffic has decreased a lot due to posting less frequently, there would have been 300,000 visitors so far according to the lowest estimate along with 801,201 pages counted until today, October 22, 2011. More amazingly – as it wasn’t expected – @Recce233Savoie has apparently become one of the biggest Twitter accounts according to various charts such as:

Airbus unfortunate glitches at Paris Air Show 2011

The Airbus flagship A380 had a winglet clipped off by a building while taxiing or parking:

Moreover, the brand new Airbus A400M military cargo aircraft got an engine failure. The A380 would have flown back to Toulouse so that it can be fixed, and take part to the Paris Air Show again. As far as the A400M is concerned, it is likely to remain grounded unless the engineering team find a solution to repair the gearbox.

Airbus has just unveiled a revolutionary concept through images of a transparent airliner design.

This aircraft of the future will use the latest technology – bionic structure; blended airframe; enhanced laminar flow and noise reduction; blended V-tail; biomorphing seats; leading-edge relaxation systems; human body thermal recycling; dramatic panoramic view; round of golf; etc.

Airbus will showcase their project called Concept Cabin during the Paris Air Show, at Le Bourget Airport. A movie – Airbus Future of Flight – will also be shown in a 360° planetarium at the Musee de l’Air et de l’Espace from 20 to 26 June 2011. Watch what travelling by plane could be… 40 years ahead:
