EUROPE IMAGES INTERNATIONAL - M5

Synopsis

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of the AIRBUS program, this documentary looks back over the history of an aeroplane and its manufacturer. A symbol of Europe working together, the company has overcome numerous obstacles in the struggle to counter Boeing's domination of the market and has succeeded in establishing Europe as a serious competitor to American supremacy. Since the consortium was created in 1969, 2,474 aircraft have been sold to airlines all over the world.
