Nice video, always good so see some 747 movements at ATL. As a side, I notice there is some construction going on. Is there a new taxiway being built that connects to 09R/27L between taxiways N4 and N6? Perhaps an extension of either taxiway SC or SJ to allow for a more direct connection between the main terminal area and runway 10/28?

I have a feeling and I talked to an ASA pilot, that the taxi ways and holdings are being lengthened/widened for the A380 and B747-8i. I'm pretty sure that some/if not all of the gates at F can hold the A380 unlike any gates at E. Not sure though

There is a project underway to upgrade parts of the airfield to accommodate the A380. When it comes, the A380 will operate from gates E1 & E3, which will work together to load and unload a single A380.

You got it. This midfield cross will enhance the efficiency of 10-28, and the overall operation, saving time and money!

If only emirates came to atlanta as a passanger line i wouldnt have to take like 3 connections to get to my family. -.- any info on that?

Are there any other construction plans for the airport? I'm only aware of the expansion of Concourse D and the expansion of runway 27R. Will there be similar expansions for 26L and about plans for adding more concourses like the South Gate Complex?

Thanks for the confirmation, always good to see efficiency of airport ops being further improved.
