Well, if it is anything like the test cruise of their nuclear carrier, I won't be surprised to hear the engines fell off shortly after takeoff. And we won't even mention the tail.

And don't forget the computer that is always "smarter" than the pilot.

Just because you can build it ....does not mean that you should.

And we won't even mention the tail. Every A380 comes equipped with an extra tail, seen in this photo being loaded into the fusilage.

I've got a bad feeling about this flight. AirBus does not have the composite materials technology that we have, and that is one heavy sucker. I have this recurring daydream of the thing losing a wing at the root at V2. I hope I am wrong.
