Shouldn't this be coming up soon? Anyone know when it's scheduled for? Airbus' site is totally void of info on it.

It needs some additional uglification before the Earth repels it...

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised. I read where Orlando International (MCO) has surpassed Miami as the busiest airport in Florida, and that isn't including the traffic through Orlando-Sanford (SFB) (where there are signs to "please look to the left before crossing the street")

Orlando may just be the ideal place to start A380 operations.

No doubt full of Brit tourists. Knowing how the typical Brit behaves while abroad I don't know how you lot put up with them. I avoid them like the plague when I'm on holiday. Roll Eyes

Come to think of it, the A380 would be ideal for this job.
