Im always on Airliners.net as there are so many great photos to put on my screensaver. Everytime it flicks over to a new picture i annoy workmates by saying "hey look, it's a blahblahblah."

I thought i would share these Airbus photos as you can spend a good amount of time just checking our whats new, whats been moved or removed for that matter. Peruse at your pleasure at the finest craft to date.

A380 Airbus



Sleek!



Have a goooood look now.



What a pleasure to fly!



Take your shoes off please. Check out the bug on the t.v screen. Billions of dollars will not stop nature from having her way!



I wonder if they have upgraded the flight attendants as well?


Good ay!

The tail cam is wicked!

The position of the tail cam (i.e. on the tail) really 'shows off' how big the A380 really is.

The A380 is such a great plane. When I first saw it, I didn't like it, but now... :wub:

Oh and the first shot of the nose and engines I like. These are great photos.

Cheers

Billions of dollars spent and all they can offer is Tetris! Go figure. I wonder if they keep the high scores! Probably have a very good emulator though. I wondered if they have 1942 or Time Pilot but probably not the most passenger friendly games while flying, if you know what i mean.

Imagine being able to get a copy of your flight on DVD , lets say to the 1st 15.000 feet to approach from 15,000 with maybe 15 mins during at Alt . the views would be amazing ! :drool: maybe chuck in ATC chatter for soundset :thumbup:

What were you hoping for? FSX? How cool would that be, btw?

I just saw the SA 380 at Sydney this morning, it was departing for Singapore but it was next to a United Airline 747 and also a Korean Air 747 which was great for comparison. I didnt take pictures but i watched it tax and depart but what a cool opportunity. I on the other hand was on a 777-300ER
