In the nineteen sixties a new Polish airliner turned up at the then London air port ( now called Heathrow ) the ground crew proudly pushed the steps up to where the aircraft cabin door should have been,only to find that it was not there ! they had overlooked the fact that in that country the door was positioned the opposite side to normal.
Now recently we had the unveiling of the new Airbus A380 and as the steps were pushed towards the aircraft there was no door in sight,modern aircraft are so sleek and smooth that it is sometimes difficult to discern where the door actually is !
