Airbus Finkenwerder
Hamburg, Germany
Hamburg-Finkenwerder Airfield is a special landing site in the southwest of Hamburg and part of the Airbus Operations GmbH site in Hamburg-Finkenwerder on the Elbe. It has a runway on which about 10 to 15 planes take off and land on workdays as part of test and delivery flights as well as material and factory air traffic.
The Airbus site is about 10 km as the crow flies west of Hamburg city center. It belongs to the Finkenwerder district and thus to the Hamburg-Mitte district. Much of the plant is located on the backfill area in the former Mühlenberger Loch. The Hamburg-Finkenwerder airfield as the Airbus factory airfield is the location of all Airbus A318, A319, A321 and also part of the A320, which are assembled in Hamburg and delivered to customers.
Airbus A380 have been flying to the airport for interior fitting, painting and delivery since 2007.
