Not everyone saw the funny side, though.
How many Christmas trees will @airbus plant to compensate this idiotic CO2 flight?

Bah, humbug!
It's not idiotic; the test flight would have been needed anyway; and would have needed to do numerous turns and certain distances. it makes no difference what the shape of the flight path is.
