Good formation work in such a big aircraft but I personally find the A380 as dull as dishwater, it's just a double decker bus for crying out loud. :P

Time will tell.  One company's betting on very big transport moving lots of people over long distances, another's betting on economical operations in a medium size transport.  It'll take about 5 years to see which strategy wins out.

Market is big enough for both.


Good point!

In fact, where there is competition, the real winners are the consumers!  :)
