      No thank god 🙂
      I spent 9 months work experience in AIRBUS in France, they make a whole range of planes including the double-decker Airbus A380. As I was only a student I wasn’t responsible for designing any airplanes! But I got to see inside the test aircraft, and I saw what a huge team of people & how many years of work go into designing, testing & building an airplane before it goes into service by the general public.
