The Airbus A380 is due


Tuesday, March 18, 2008

airbus.jpgThe Airbus A380 is due to make its first commercial flight debut in Europe in a few hours, when a flight from Singapore arrives at Heathrow. Right now, Singapore Air is the only carrier to use the superjumbo, although British Airways, Virgin, and other companies will all have their own versions of this massive aircraft soon. Singapore will now use the Airbus to make one flight daily from Heathrow to Singapore. (BBC and Bloomberg)
