| Airbus A380 First flight. What a monster ! the grace and beauty of this beautiful aircraft as she just lifted off the ground in France today,just imagine being the pilot making that first flight ? one thing that strikes me is that it was just as if the flight was a mere formality,all of the groundwork and calculations were just right,I think that Airbus industries are on to a real winner here,doubtful if Boeing will follow but concentrate on smaller airliners for the time being at least.
It will be a long time before all of the high development investment costs are recouped for this project.
