Wow, they don't even have to look out the window to fly the plane.

Heather, I think that plane flies itself :ROFL:

I'd like to see a 360 view of the passenger cabins - that is one wicked plane

It must be strange for the pilots in a way.  On one side the "joystick" is in your left hand, and on the other it's on the right.


Those big handles, right under the windows;  Is that the Ejection seat?   *scared*

The A380 was at the end of the runway at British aerospace Bristol the other week, we was watching all the engineers going over it while unloading the truck, unfortunately it was to far away for the point and shoot camera to get a decent photo, next time I deliver to Bristol airport I will have a white coat and a clipboard handy  :grin:
