Look at the number of wheels! It’s an amazing airplane but the number of routes that really require a plane of that capacity has to be pretty small. I mean, wouldn’t it be more profitable to fly two A350’s or two 787’s instead of one A380? Especially if there is a slow down in travel, you can fly one smaller plane full rather than one A380 half full.It's mind-boggling to think how much that thing weighs and it still flies.
Nice spotting. I flew through Madrid (out and back) last year. Not a fan.Spotted at the Madrid airport. Never seen one in real life before!
