What a tribute, not only to our company but also to all our employees and aviation enthusiasts around the world. I’m very much looking forward to discovering more footage! Well done to all the @airbus and @PAFofficiel teams involved in this amazing kick off of our #Airbus50! pic.twitter.com/CM7Re9S9dO

The six aircraft, (A319neo, A220, A330neo, A350-1000, A380 and even the BelugaXL) were joined by a formation of fighter jets from the Patrouille de France aerobatic team.
Sadly, due to the weather conditions, a low flypast above the Toulouse-Blagnac airport had to be canceled.
Even Boeing released a touching video for the anniversary of its European rival.
