He said a GROUND speed of 500 MPH, the speed in the air and on the ground differ greatly above a certain speed and hight.

why did this get 113,215 views?

@danetrain0101 A wing doesn't stop producing lift as soon as it goes under Vr, it instead produces less lift, but it gently lets the plane down.
-
@JATO457 What do you mean the wings still produce lift?
-
@danetrain0101 Thats why just about every airport that has airlines that have puchased the A380 have strengthened their runways and widened them. Also, lift is still being produced by the wings so the plane doesn't land hard. It will land hard, but it won't happen often.
-
@JATO457 The problem isn't the landing distance, it is the weight. The a380 has a ramp weight of 1.2 to 1.3 million pounds and a landing weight of 600,000 to 800,000 lbs. The 747 lands at around 450,000 or so. The problem is that the A380 will literally crack the pavement.
-
@danetrain0101 no, it actually lands within 10000 ft.

The A380 has been out for a month now.
The only problem with it is that it can only fly into certain airports. The thing weighs so much it cracks pavement and destroys runways.
I think there are only a handful of airports that it can fly into right now.
