Watch: ‘World’s strangest-looking plane’ lands at Heathrow

This is the moment an Airbus Beluga dubbed the ‘world’s strangest-looking plane’ landed at Heathrow airport.

The Airbus Beluga, which got its name because of its resemblance to the species of whale, touched down at Heathrow Airport at 11:04 on Monday.

The Beluga has reportedly been dispatched from Toulouse with spare parts to repair a damaged British Airways plane that has been left stranded at Heathrow since April, after a minor collision at the airport.

The Airbus Beluga is due to leave Heathrow at 17:40 to return to Toulouse according to Flightradar24.
