  • wait a couple years till these planes start having problems. on top of it being so massive a lot of airports arent going to upgrade to even support it. the only thing it has going for it is that it can seat 500-800 people. the dreamliner is a much better plane.

  • @angryfurniture totall agree. With the lastest being the hairline cracks in the wings. As sad as it is to say this, I can see a major disaster happening in the next few years with one of these beasts.

  • when he said biggest plane, he meant biggest passenger plane

  • How the hell does it get off the bloody ground being that big?!?!?

  • Goddamned UrinePeons and their biggest airplane---I don't like America being upstaged or outclassed in anything. As soon as we get rid of the nigger and get some real leadership we will be back---with a vengeance.

    America will kick your ass---sooner or later.

  • @IdolHans How's the weather in conceitedville?

  • @Hembane The Wx is Horrible!

  • puss tard!

  • ewwwwwwwww its ugly i don't want a close up

    jks lol nah its a pretty impresive plane!! i gotta say but i still love the 747-400 more! :P

  • einfach...schön

  • its weird how airbus paints their own logo on another companys plane

    like in malaysias they painted A380 at the back so malaysia needs to paint the a380 by them selves.

  • @Kimflash your a fag

  • @manishkyle If im a fag your obviusly a bitch

  • @Kimflash lol worst comeback ever. that's all u got? wow u are a fag and a pussy. and a bitch by the way. and probably a 4 year old. so go to hell, fag

  • @manishkyle kk ill go to hell then.

  • @Kimflash smartass

  • Damn, THAT'S HUGE :D

  • @ChocolateCookieFreak your a fag

  • Invite Jesus into your heart by watching this video below and then go to John 3:16. Gods Son Jesus.

    watch?v=XcUpq3MHkhs

  • why does quantAS HAEVE AIRBUSES TALE BUT THERE LOGOS ON THE ENGINES AND FRONT OF THERE A380

  • @delta7576 The plane was the first A380 test airplane and it belongs to Airbus. It was used on its world wide tour of customer airlines as well as part of its certification process. Airbus painted their customers' livery in names'sake, and logos on the engine cowls however changing the tail would be very costly because the vertical fin is carbon fibre and much more difficult to paint.

  • That plane looks like a monster, scary looking fat moving machine lol

  • the 747 y old and ugly, the airbus a380 is the future of big airliner!!!hahahaha

  • Many airports around the world can't handle the 380 because it is too big and it came in a time where airports can't expand it's terminal to handle it.

    747 is way better because it a classic and lot of people know it.

  • Stupid argument.

    A380 can land and takeoff from any airport that 747 currently can.

    Airlines will be paying for terminal upgrades- so if airlines decide to purchae A380 they obvioulsy have factored in terminal upgrades anyway.

  • @whitireia Sorry you've got it wrong.

    The A380 has a much higher MTOW and various taxiways/holding points/parking areas/terminal areas have had to be dug up and thicker concrete installed. On top of that, the over 80m wing span encroaches on taxiways and parallel runway safety minimums often resulting in shutdows of aforementioned areas when the A380 is taxiing/landing. Just check out LAX's arguments with QF, and you'll see. Currently the A380 can operate out of only 18 airports world wide.

  • @blampa believe what you will. Of course A380 that is significantly bigger than the next biggest pax aircraft (747) will require some adjustments to accomodate it's shear size. The fact is A380 will only need to fly to the major hubs to be successful. The 747 on the other hand is damn near retirement.

  • @whitireia

    But it's not successful. In fact airlines have been cancelling orders, and the planes break even point is 573 airframes. Only 40 odd have been delivered and the standing orders are at around 100 odd. Further, these 100 have been heavily discounted due to delays. If the French govt stop subsidising the heck out of these planes, EADS will bankrupt.

  • @blampa it's early days yet. The A380 is certainly an ambitious project and risky - but a failure not yet. A380 is designd for the next 20 - 30yrs - I think the A380 streched version is what airlines are waiting for. That will be the next generation of flight and economy of scale.

    You obviously have a Boeing bias & lets not mention Boeings exclusive military contracts and subsidies since WWII.

  • @whitireia it is early days however, the trend is people want convenience and that's why hub to hub is dated. If you could travel point to point why would you want to spend hours in queues and at airports lugging bags around as is the case with hub to hub? Smaller planes, more flights direct to your destination - it's the public that want it.

  • @blampa your a fag

  • @manishkyle That would be you're as in you are not your.

    For example, I might say some things like;

    you're an idiot, you're an illiterate, you're somewhat lacking in regards to penile size, you're masking your own proclivity for the intimate company of homosexual men. Obviously your public education didn't teach you this distinction; perhaps you could take a language course.

  • @blampa lol no one even gives a shit about what you think. Your just a loser with a computer. You are a fag. You are also a no life dumbass.

  • @whitireia your a fag

  • @manishkyle idiot with a small dick obviously.

  • @blampa your a fag

  • @blampa The wingspan of the A380 is 79.75m :D But you're still right about the shutdowns, etc. It happens at AKL I believe.

  • @whitireia But the thing is, the runways and taxiways have to be strengthened to allow it to even set foot in the airport.

  • @Borck103 not entirely true. The A380 actually has a lighter footprint per wheel than a 747. The taxiways need adjustment to accomodate the behemouth A380 and gateways. The runways DO NOT need strengthening. Infact, an A380 uses less runway to take off and land due to its relatively low approach speed of about 130knts due to the gull wing design. A typical 747 in landing configuration has an approach speed of 160knts.

  • I agree with you cam9408 747 always will be the best plane ever built, the A380 is too big in my opinion.

  • nice work lol

  • not exacly a nice looking plane but truely remarcable at how large it is and how it can still fly

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • You seem so sure about what you said as well.

    The An 225 is the biggest fixed wing aircraft ever, so you're wrong.

  • Comment removed

  • No. You're wrong again.

    The An 225 is constantly being chartered to carry large cargo loads, and they are building a second one.

  • he is right but what he ment was biggest commercial Airliner

  • @qwertdr the a380 is indeed the biggest commercial airplane ever built

  • Considering a 2-class configuration, about the number of people that die for car accidents in about a week, in the United States.

  • Hughs H-4 Spruce Goose has the largest wingspan on any plane 97.4m compared to AN 225

  • that thing has some monster truck tires

  • You know I'll tell you all something, I've never been on a plane and said to myself " you know I wish there were more passengers on this plane".

  • SPOT ON! SPOT ON!

  • You haven't but the airlines have...

  • I haven't what ???

  • AN 225 Is the biggest airplane in the world not the A380

  • You are mad!

  • AN 225 is the biggest cargo plane and plane in the world.....

    Airbus A380 is the biggest passenger plane in the world...

    I LIKE PIE :)

  • OMG I HATE BEETHOVEN!

  • dont like this plane, 747 is better

  • hello nice plane but the biggest one is russian Antonov An-225

  • to bad thats military.. this is for real people...

  • That's correct, the 380 is the biggest civ one, but the description says: World's Biggest Airplane.

    i saw this machine (a380) flying ova my head ( i think somekind ~8000ft AGL) and the plane is so big that the people around me said "why its going so slow??"

    LOL

  • Although Airbus made the biggest aircraft they made the stupidest maistake by just putting a bunch of stupid crap in the plane.. IT ONLY HOLDS 20% more passengers than the 747 thats a bad AIRBUS bad bad airbus.

  • stop reading Mickey magazine. An A380 has 49% more space and 35% more seats capacity than a 747-8 for only 10% more fuel.

    Something I can't understand, how can you beleive an A380 is only 20% more capacity with 2 full floors ? I think you refering to the SIA version witch carry a lot of suits and a huge affair class section...

    Best Regards.

  • you didnt read correctly good sir... i said only 20% more passengers tnot space hey put beds in it. and bars!

  • MADE IN EU

  • hey brett3005!!

    are you goin' crazy???

    have you ever been on an aircraft?!?!?!

    shut up cuz there are one of the savest airlines on earth!!!

  • Australia protects New Zealand. Without us, you're hopeless. I'm not a hater of New Zealand, i'm just telling brett3005 to stfu and think before he says "fuck australia"

  • i agree, but the a380 does look good

  • huge

  • man that airplane is biiiiiiiiiiiiggggggggg

    *stands next to it*

    "sssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhiiii­iiiiiiitttttttt"

  • Where is New Zealand? Isn't that somewhere near Middle Earth? It must be, because you are obviously a troll.

  • LOL! Find Australia and go East.

  • hahaha, go on then asshole, tell me why

  • brett3005, A380 isnt a fucked up piece of shit, your just jealous because Qantas has them and Air New Zealand doesnt.

    And no, Australia does own New Zealand. Australia and New Zealand are partner countries, we have the same flag. If you continue to hate Australia, you better watch it. Australia will bomb the shit out of you with our f-18s. Oh, and we're getting 100 F-35's too. What is new zealand gonna do? You guys don't have a single fighter aircraft.

    Oh, and Qantas > Air New Zealand.

  • good video

  • i hate the concorde but look at the a340-500-600 and the 777 series the 747. they are all amazing looking

  • You hate the Concorde?

    And yes the A380 does not win any beauty contests but what an amazing and awesome airliner.

  • Which and the name of this music, please?

  • Symphony #9 4th Mov. by L..V. Beethoven

  • Oh no sorry 2nd Mov.

  • Is that the real livery used on the Q's A380?

  • nah mate!

  • the thing is a fat fucking whale an embarresment to aircraft what a ugly fucker

  • 1: its not the worlds "biggest airplane" the AN-225 is. its the biggest commercial aircraft

  • Actually the AN-225 is the biggest comercial NON PASSENGER PLANE.

    When they mean that the A380 is the biggest plane they mean biggest as in passengers dork. So stop trying to be Mr know it all.

  • the an-225 is the biggest plane

  • Truly an ugly plane.

  • true.

  • Qantas sucks

    like tha airbus 380

    hate Qantas

  • I like both :P

  • I don,t think so,QANTAS made a smart choice by

    choosing the airbus 380.

  • just gona net a new zealend plain to guide it

  • anku6 u suck like hell

  • That was one of the prototypes..... and as said that isn't the worlds largest airplane. The An-225 is. The 747-8 should be good :P

  • the a380 ad no full size working prototypes made.

  • Well then it had 3 somethings that toured the world and did tests.

  • I REALLY REALLY hope it doesnt replace the

    747! the 747 is much better looking on the outside than the A380!

  • Hope what you want but the 747 is now outdated and the A380 is the future. Deal with it

  • Nah, Boeing is devising a new Boeing 747, the 747-8, which will be larger than a 747-400, and will have the 787 style.

  • While the 747 is a great plane and a beatiful one, it can't match the A380 economics. You can carry 35%more people for the same fuel cost. Besides once the longer A380-900 version is available it will be the most efficient plane. Even the 787 or A350 wont come close to such economics.

  • Thank god Boeing is working on the 747-8 then. :)

  • Qantas service sucks.

  • they don't suck. they have just had some bad luck in the past couple of months.

  • i beg to differ.

    i was on seat guru to see which airlines stuff the most seats on a 747

    i figured it would be a cheep airline in aisa but no.

    it was qantas.

  • Huge?

  • they finished making it

  • i dont think the tail is supost to be blue and say A380 on it

    goood video

  • look at an antonov 225 MUCH BIGGER!

  • Damn this plane so giant!!

  • that plane is fucking big

  • It looks like one of the fishes with the big forhead. lol. That plane is pretty cool. i would love to ride one.

  • does a plane REALLY need to be THAT big?

  • Yes.

    Lol

  • PSH... its not so big!! hahaha, people in the futre will look back on this great piece of engineering, like we'd look back titanic...

  • Nice pictures, super!!

  • I am going buy ticket for flight Melb to LA for Oct 20 cant wait

  • thats what u can call a giant!!!!!!!

  • You haven't seen 'FAT' until you've see an Airbus A300-600ST Super Transporter, take a look at one of those suckers!

  • SFO55IO is true they are to fat it looks like a shit !!! 777 are better

  • An aircraft's looks aren't important when you're INSIDE it, is it?

  • that plane would'nt have look so fat if they just made the cock pit taller so it wouldn't go up so much

  • im cousin got to see it in Chile and go inside! im really jelouse

  • I agree just what do you mean FAT

    It is actually taller than fat

    LOOK at it straight on

  • I mean FAT plane and very heavy.. I look like body on plane too fat on that shape body... But I dont know how to explain it hee hee..

  • It flys well though aparently better than a 747 by a long shot, so cant be to bad for saying it can hold over 500 passengers and so on.

  • What about the 747 8

    also if the A380 was made around the time the 747 was first being built, I'm guessing the 747 would just be better

    but I still like A380, just not as much

  • Thats not my point at all, im just responding to the point its fat and ugly, I like boeing better by the way.

  • i fly them there canadian planes eh =] but if i had a choice id go boeing =]

  • Maybe Airbus thinks YOU'RE ugly!

  • maybe your a git

  • Maybe u r!

  • i get enuf crap at home wifouh givin me more

  • I h8 airbus they are turbulent and ugly. I wish Aer Lingus never got rid of their 737's.

    Mannion has options for 787's i hope he takes dem

  • Boeing is okay... i fly continental so i cant really complain, but i still like airbusses better

  • To anyone want to do flight training:

    RMIT flight training is shit even I finished and in Sydney I still heard that feb 2007 class only 2 people finished out of 24 and mid year 2007 guys has no class everyday they don't really care about student all.

  • No way! I would never bid on a flight in which I would fly an Airbus. Boeing has it right; no doubt about it. Sorry guys. The Airbus just can't properly react to a pilot's sense of touch.

  • scarebus more like it, i'm cabin crew and airbus are made of plastic, boeing made of metal. dreading the a380......our airline gets it this year!

  • I used to fly Boeing 737's and now I have changed Airlines I now have to fly A319's and after nearly 7 years flying 737's I thought I would never like the A319 more but I was compleatly amazed by how easy to fly and controle the A319's were. There is no comparison between the A319 and the 737. The A319 is better in every single way. I wouldn't go back to 737's ever.

  • my neighbor is a pilot and says that airbus' have no maneuverability

  • Well I can't agree with your neighbor.

  • my uncle used to fly the A319 for a long time, then he flew the 737, he said the 737 was a much better aircraft and he would never go back to Airbus, all depends on a persons opinions, there is no OVERALL BETTER aircraft, all depends on a persons preference, im sure someone will rather fly on a 707 then a A380, or a A300 then a 777, all depends.

  • But money is what the Airlines want. The A319 is cheaper to run, more fuel eficient and earns more money per passenger than any 737.

    You are right. There is no overall better aircraft but there are aircraft that do certain things better than other aircraft.

  • dont even diss airbus we all know that airbus has so much better aircraft than boeing, its just the truth.

  • Btw the title of this vid is wrong. The A380 is not the worlds biggest airplane.Its the worlds biggest passanger plane. Biggest is the Antonov-225 Myria. Nice music and vid though.

  • I still don't get why they had to make the A380 so ugly. It looks like a fat whale!

  • I agree with you men

  • I wouldn't even give it that. Ugly plane this one - but noice inside!! I am just a big 747 person :)

  • A Boeing man, like me. I really don't like Airbus. All though i have only ever been on 737's. And i LOVE them. Made two videos about them.

  • How can you judge without never flown a Airbus? Do you know they are more quiet then Boeings for example? I can understand that you like Boeing i do to, but one should have some experience and some reasons before hating something else its ignorance.

  • Ignorance? Im not going to shoot off my head because you didn't insult me, Yes What you are saying is true. But is is simply that i like the look, names and style of Boeing. Every Boeing except the 787.

  • I judge on looks only and I think Boeings look better. I guess that's just a matter of taste. Can't say which one is better, a Boeing or an Airbus. It's like comparing a BMW and a Mercedes. Both great cars, but it's a matter of taste which one you'll chose.

  • Yeah, the nose of the A380 looks weird, Dreamliner for me

  • Companies judge aircraft mostly by their operating economics.

  • Just to clear things up, Boeing are much better aircraft than Airbus, Airbus has to much shity technology. And for the record Ive flown Airbus aircraft and I really preffer Boeing, Id rather fly an RJ than a fucking airbus piece of shit

  • Its a fact that Boeing makes higher quality aircraft, I wonder why the military preffer's boeing and Im not talking only in the US, do some research first Airbus boy!!! (This guy is probably french jejeje!!!)

  • yea..boeing makes such high-quality aircraft that their passenger deaths increase every year...i've flown on a 747 from frankfurt to jfk and it was pure bullshit..european engineering is the way to go you dumb piece of shit. LOOK AT THE STATS!!

  • Ok men, whatever you say. Im just a pilot "what would I know". When you get your ratings and fly for the airlines and actually get to experience a real airplane and its controls then you can talk to me.

  • Please learn something about aircraft before you make yourself look completely stupid. And of course the stats shows that because there are alot more boeing aircfraft flying than airbus. The next time you see an airline pilot ask him what aircraft is better?? Ive known guys that fly airbus and they really dont like them as much as boeings. But again what would I know.

  • when you little shit head fly a real plane then talk to me. I dont have to waste my time with ignorants like you that dont know shit.

  • if you only knew

  • sure

  • maelo11, before you answer this question know that i'm not an idiot like the rest of the people writing comments, I have a serious question: Have you ever flown an airbus and what do you think about the control stick compared to the conventional control yoke that are on boeing planes?
