many people say that the a380 has problems, but the 747 had the same kind of problem back in the 60-70s. the a380 fleat wil grow as big as the 747 fleat(maby even bigger). it is just a matter of time and economy. more countrys are groing economys now like china an japan. more people are useing airplanes every year(the nummer went up even in the crisis). a380 is just in his child stage, but will grow up as a very good plane in the near future.
Indeed it looks a bit ugly (and fat), but what I think is amazing is that such a huge thing can fly so high... and yeah ;p Don't really know the words for it, I'm not English :-D
Four delta wings, 6 decks, female cabin crew all in bikinis telling us dirty jokes. On take off they say to the passengers... "HIT THE DECK YA BASTARDS !". --Some aircraft the B1007 will be.
Boeing relied on its laurels with the B744, and 744ER, and they got caught sleeping by airbus. Well good one Airbus.
The B748 is but a panic responce to the A380. Boeing has had the Blended wing design for 10 years+ and the basis to build a full double deck 747 since the first 747 came out of the factory. If the few Americans don't like the A380 then its your own nations fault for not beating airbus in this race. Good on Airbus.
boeing doesn't want to have a fat ass plane. airbus only built this because a340 was a failure. now people are looking for nonstop international flights not 2-3 hub changes. also the 747-8 has more profit per passenger mile than the fat ass plane.
A380 is so ugly, it flies as brick (In fact it is a kind of vertically streched A340). I think B787 will have greater value for long haul passenger A/C.
I don't agree - the A340 has been designed from scratch. Look at the wings and the tail and compare them to the A340, it's far from that! The B787 however uses more innovative materials so in that respect the 787 seems to have an advantage. But it will all come down to the fact whether airlines want an aircraft with a very large capacity or whether they prefer more smaller ones. The success of the 747 would suggest the former.

ahocknul04 3 years ago
no those are not the best engine, the best and the more powerful jet engine are on the B777-300ER
which are GE90-115B, they are strong enough that one of them can fly a 747!!!!!!! and its HUGE!!
go check about it

This is an A380, not a 777 numbnuts.

The 777 is not very nice to sit in. I prefer the older Boeings as they were far more roomy.

That's what I am hoping too, but with Airbus' ongoing problems, this is very questionable. Unfortunately.
