As you're probably aware, Airbus A380 made its debut appearance here in the UK today when it overflew Bristol Filton and landed at Heathrow. I thought that instead of re-creating that flight i could give RIAT its debut performance of the A380 instead ;D ;D

Nice shots!

That model is wrong! There is only 2 thrust reversers on the 380'.  ;)

Why is the F-117 in the background of the first show hovering? ;)

one of the frame rate saving features of this scenery is to have all the static aircraft's landing gear, canopy detail aerials etc removed. Doesnt help much but at least its an improvement on the already low frame rates ::) ;)

Beatiful shots!  :)
I love the Airbus A380...
... before you were conceived, I already wanted you.
... before you were born, I already loved you.
... before you were 1 day old, I already wanted to fly you!  ;D
