A380 landing at Tullamarine airport, Melbourne

Heres a vid of the Airbus A380 landing at Tullamarine airport from Sydney on a test flight. I think it taken on 15/11/05. 20,000 people were there to see it arrive and it took 2 hours for the traffic to return to normal. Great to see.

thats right anti, this was taken on the A380's first flight to Australia, just a proving/promotions flight. It flew in from Sydney via Singapore, which was the first airline to fly it commercially. This aircraft actually had barrels of water in it to simulate passenger weight and lugguage.

The A380 is damn huge, it is a great aircraft but it is allso a little bit scary because it's so damn huge.

No, they delivered the plane to be painted in the Qantas colours in Australia or something like that. This is just to give pilots and passengers a taste of what they'll be flying on
