I’ve flown an Emirates A380 twice from JFK to Dubai round trip.A nice aircraft for sure...but no better than a 777 or 747.They’re talking about using a 380 between Boston and Dubai which I’d love to see.One of several landing patterns into Logan takes aircraft about 300 feet over a great viewing spot in South Boston.They pass so close overhead that you can almost reach up and grab the landing gear.
I saw an A380 fly over a couple of weeks ago at about 7000 feet. It looked like it was at about 2000 feet and darkened the sky. I’ve also seen it parked on the ground next to other jumbos and it dwarfed them.
