10yr-old Muscle Warrior Lewis describes his Airbus A380 Muscle Dream experience at Heathrow as ‘the best day ever’!
Date Fulfilled: 10th December 2016
When a mum from Strabane (Northern Ireland) takes time out from her busy schedule to submit a Muscle Dream nomination in which she says that her beautiful 10yr-old son Lewis who has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is absolutely crazy about planes and everything to do with aviation, especially the Airbus A380, well there was only one thing for it… he rest as they say is history!

| “It was the best day ever; I felt I could achieve anything. I’m now looking to join an aviation club in Northern Ireland. Anything is possible!” Lewis 10yrs, Airbus A380 Muscle Dream beneficiary “Lewis is still buzzing from his Muscle Dream experience. You helped him realize he has a lot of untapped potential. He came home more inspired by his love of aviation. You will be in our conversations often as Lewis comes to understand more about his condition” Clare (mum of Lewis) “Pure inspiration! We live and breathe our technologies and products; meeting Lewis with his passion for flight put us all on cloud 9!” Nick Chesher, Project Manager, Airbus “It was an absolute pleasure and a privilege to meet you and your team. And of course, Lewis who is such an incredible little man! We will all never forget the great day he spent with us and for me, personally, every time I see and fly on one of our A380s, I will always think of the wonderful little boy Lewis and his love for aviation. And who knows, one day we may be able to reunite Lewis with one of our A380s to keep nurturing that amazing spirit and enthusiasm.” Jonathon Counsell, Group Head of Sustainability, International Airlines Group (IAG) |
