    Great video. Shame Airbus gave up developing the A380 so early. It's much more relevant now as a jet then it was when it was launched.

      Is that why after Covid only Emirates put there’s back in service? There’s literally college courses on how airbus missed the mark with the A380.

      @@shabo857 Indeed, I'm no aeronautical expert but they should've had a re engine program (RR were interested in it) and definitely make it slightly larger like the A350 - 1000. The 800 version was always too small like the 747SP. The world's population is always increasing and this jet is only solution for congested airports. A380 is the only aircraft in the world that still has a wow factor & airlines like Emirates charge a slight premium for tickets.

      @@shabo857 Tim Clark at Emirates is a industry visionary and always knew that the A380 would be a success for him. I believe Airbus would've picked up at least 250 plus orders from Indian airlines who are now the main purchasers of wide body aircraft. India has the largest expat community in the world and this is the main reason why Etihad and Qatar kept their whale jets.

    Wonder why they dont operate from LGW as well. I suppose its something to do with logistics or not viable to have two london Routes

      It wouldn’t be viable, Qantas has to operate a380s both ways between Sydney and London, Melbourne to LAX and Sydney to LAX.
