Our lives depend on it!
And it is something we are not getting 100% right every time!

A Case Study
To contrast the work that we do!
It is about the A 380
Heard of it?
![Page 3: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Airbus A 380
![Page 4: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A Big, Big Nose Job!
Workers inspect the nose section of an A380 under construction at St. Nazaire, on France's
Atlantic coast. Sections of the fuselage are built at this factory, then shipped by sea, river, and
highway for final assembly in Toulouse.

Flying Beluga
In Stade, Germany, an A380 tailfin is loaded onto a transport plane. The plane, nicknamed the Beluga because
of its bulbous profile, can accommodate the 24.1-meter-high tailfin, which is longer than the wing of a Boeing 737 or Airbus A320. But other A380 parts are too big and have to
be shipped by land or sea.
![Page 6: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Winging it
An A380 wing under construction at an Airbus factory in Broughton, North Wales. A new factory had to be built to accommodate the 46-meter-long
wing, which is taller than a nine-story building.
![Page 7: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A mega plane
A ferry carries an A380 wing down the River Dee from the Broughton wing factory. What's that
AFON DYFRDWY painted on the side of the boat -- a serial number? No, it's Welsh for "River Dee!
![Page 8: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Wings over water!
With a pair of A380 wings stowed in its hold, a ferry steams
toward the mouth of the Garonne River in France, enroute
from Wales. The oceangoing ferry, christened the Ville de
Bordeaux, was custom-built for Airbus at a Chinese
shipyard.
![Page 9: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Historic Passage
A barge carrying an A380 wing passes under the 19th-
century Pont de Pierre on the Garonne River in Bordeaux,
France. The pilings of the historic bridge were reinforced to
guard against collisions with barges carrying pieces of the
megaplane.
![Page 10: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Wide Load Ahead!
Custom-built flatbed trucks ferry A380 parts from Bordeaux
to Toulouse. Airbus and the French government split the
cost of widening and straightening this highway, which is
closed to traffic several nights a month so the convoys can
pass.
![Page 11: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Touchdown
Sixteen Football Fields could fit inside the A380 assembly
plant in Toulouse. Five test aircraft have already been built
here, and construction is under way on A380s to be
delivered by the end of this year to Singapore Airlines, the
first customer.
![Page 12: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Roll them in!
Workers help roll a chunk of A380 fuselage into
place at the Toulouse assembly plant. Note the
three levels inside the fuselage: Two passenger
decks, with a cargo hold at the bottom.
![Page 13: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Snap then together!
O.K., it's a little harder than putting together a Lego toy, but
with the wings and fuselage built elsewhere, final assembly
in Toulouse takes surprisingly little time. Airbus says it
expects to build four A380s per month after production
ramps up next year.
![Page 14: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Roll them out
A finished A380, one of five test aircraft, being
towed onto a runway at Toulouse. It will be flown
to another Airbus facility in Hamburg, Germany, for
painting and interior outfitting.
![Page 15: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Paint job
Workers in Hamburg paint the exterior of an A380. What will the megaplane's interior look like? That's
a secret, closely guarded by Airbus and the carriers that will start flying the plane next year.
![Page 16: 020 execution - an analogy](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051323/54b804d04a79597b058b458c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Take off!
An A380 heads skyward at the Asian Aerospace air show in Singapore in February. The plane,
though painted with the livery of launch customer Singapore Airlines, is actually one of several test
models.

Honestly...
Can life get more complex than this?

Airbus can execute such awesomely
complex jets, we can certainly get
execution 100% right!
