Singapore Airlines has unveiled its latest aircraft addition – an A380 aircraft
model built entirely of LEGO® bricks – in LEGOLAND®, Billund Denmark.
Using over 75,000 LEGO bricks in eight colours, the world’s largest Singapore
Airlines LEGO aircraft model took the entire team of professional LEGO model
builders at LEGOLAND more than 600 hours to construct. It is currently on
display at “MiniWorld” in the main LEGOLAND Park.
The model retains the dimension, scale and design of an actual Singapore
Airlines A380 aircraft. Measuring 2.9 metres in length, it has a wingspan of 3.2
metres and stands at one metre. The total weight of the model is 125 kg,
including 100 kg of LEGO bricks.
In June Singapore Airlines also unveiled a 1:25 scale model of its A380 aircraft
in the miniature city of Madurodam, in the Netherlands.
Singapore Airlines will be the launch customer for the Airbus A380. The largest
commercial aircraft ever to be built, it has a length of 72.7 metres, wingspan
of 79.8 metres and a height of 24.1 metres. The Airline has 19 A380 aircraft on
order and a further 6 options. The aircraft will first be used on the Kangaroo
route: between Singapore, Sydney, and then London.
