And sky news as Charlie said have an A380 test pilot, so you guess whos got the best coverage ;) ;D
But in all seriousness CNN gets in who they can for Europe, they are an American news company first then a european/world.

BBC has brought in experts such as the editor of flight international and have a much more docile presentation of this historic event.

I actually have BBC here and it seems to be doing a better job that CNN or the local networks out of New York.
