I believe the reason for this is Airbus is testing something interesting…

Thoughts on "migration like" flights

Soo i came across this article [Screenshot_20211110-114747_Chrome] basically, airbus tested this thing out where they got a a350 -900 and -1000 to fly really close together, the -1000 used the -900 wake to prevent fuel loss. Apparently in the test it saves around 6 tons of fuel. I also forgot to mention it is a 7:40 flight across the atlantic from toulouse to montreal in this close formation. Airbus think they can implement this maybe mid decade they stated. I wanna hear ur guys thoughts Any…
