The Airbus Beluga XL4 transporter is seen here approaching Hawarden Airport. This plane first flew from Toulouse on 21st July 2021, and can carry two Airbus A350 XWB wings rather than the one that the earlier Belugas could carry. There are now six Beluga XL planes in the fleet, which will eventually replace the smaller standard Beluga planes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbus_BelugaXL
