I'm in no way an Airbus fan. Nor would I usually call an aircraft cute, but I'll make exceptions to both those in this case

Nothing wrong with finding beauty in something. I am in no way a Sukoi fan but, one can not help but to find the Su-27 and it's derivatives sexy.

It may have the name of a whale but it will never be “the whale”. Long live the Queen.

Only a company called Airbus would name a plane Beluga.

Wrong. The original aircraft was built by Antonov and it was them who called it Beluga
