Flying the Airbus A380

FloatsomNJetsom writes "So the largest passenger airplane in the world actually is pretty large inside — Popular Mechanics has a great article and video from their test flight on the brand new double-decker Airbus A380. This includes footage of takeoff, interviews with the pilot and test engineer, a rundown on the bar, the two staircases, and an attempt to walk down a crowded aisle from one end of the plane to the other without having to say 'excuse me.'"

    Are you always so presumptuous?

    Calm down dude, its just slashdot shorthand, where you make your point with a minor alteration of another's point.

    If you have something to say about my post, rather than the way it's presented, go ahead.

    I don't think this deserves to be modded down to -1 Flamebait. It's interesting enough to be at least a +2 if not higher. And it's certainly at least as coherent as the reply that got modded up to +5. 90, 78, what?
