On this Day 1907 the Boffins at LARPA (Lutons Advanced Research Projects Agency) based at the #RAFLuton Broom Lake test facility unveiled their A380 Bomber design. Only 9000 A380 Bombers were built, with just 2000 remaining in service today. #AvGeekpic.twitter.com/99XOuMsaus

Fun fact: as denoted by the tail letters, the test pilot for this flight was Macauley Culkin, who later went on to become a film star in the comedy ‘Top Gun’.
