In order to reduce production cost, the guys in TLS have looked at fitting the engines to the wings in Chester - sorry Broughton - then getting pilots to sit astride the engine pylons to fly them to the Nantes/St Nazaire group of factories for the centre section to hold the wings together and some other bits & pieces then to Meulte for the flight deck then to Ham for the rest of the fuselage & fin and then to Spain for the horizontal tailplane then to Hamburg for the interior.
But it did'nt work - the fuel cost was too high.
So they built some A300-600ST Belugas instead.
Now, who put all that sherry in the Xmas pud?
