North American #avgeek alert: if you're on the path of the #Airbus A350-1000ULR flight test #AIB35LR and can take a picture of an airplane at altitude, get your telescopes and cameras ready. It will fly over California and cross the USA and Canada on the way to France. No stops are planned. And the ULR is an incremental update on the A350-1000LR. So as tests go, it's likely to go smoothly. #A35K #aviation #travel #avgeek

When the #Airbus A350-1000ULR comes in range of civilian ADS-B receivers off the coast of Southern California, you can use its ADS-B hex code 39A3FB to track it. (Until it comes in range, the systems will display its last position off the coast of Australia many hours ago.) https://globe.airplanes.live/?icao=39a3fb https://adsb.lol/?icao=39a3fb #A35K #aviation #travel #avgeek

ADS-B tracking sites have acquired #Airbus A350-1000ULR #AIB35LR off the coast of Southern California. It appears to be headed for a "feet dry" (landfall) point around Santa Barbara.

They turned, now headed for direct overflight of the Los Angeles metro area. Anyone know an #avgeek friend with telescope who can get pics of a widebody jet at 41000ft? Ping them. Please add pics in this thread. (attn @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org ) globe.airplanes.live/?icao=39a3fb https:// adsb.lol/?icao=39a3fb #Airbus #AIB35LR #A35K #aviation #travel #avgeek

"New airliner sets record flying 24 hrs nonstop from Australia to France" by @arstechnica@mastodon.social - #Airbus A350-1000ULR #AIB35LR test flight MEL-TLS going eastbound (long way around) took 24 hours and 25 minutes. It flew over Los Angeles & London. It was record longest non-stop unrefueled flight by an airliner. It wasn't a scheduled passenger flight, which is a different category record this model will probably take as well after certification. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/07/new-airliner-sets-record-flying-24-hrs-nonstop-from-australia-to-france/ #A35K #aviation #travel #avgeek
