U.S. AIRFORCE C-17A AIRCRAFT PASSES OVER A WING OF AN AIRBUS A300-600 ST BELUGA TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT AT ILA AIRSHOW IN BERLIN. A U.S. Air Force C-17 A Globemaster III transport aircraft passes over the wing of an Airbus A300-600 ST Beluga cargo plane, which is the world's biggest cargo aircraft on display at the International Aerospace Exhibition ILA at Berlin's Schoenefeld airport June 6. Airbus has been promoting its proposed A3XX superjumbo airliner for years, but the company's supervisory board was due to consider last month whether to authorise the consortium to actually sign contracts to supply the 555-seat plane. That board meeting was deferred, for unstated reasons, but has now been rescheduled to coincide with the timing, location and therefore publicity of the Berlin air show - ILA 2000, which begins on Tuesday.
