It's a good looking plane.  And the orders are flooding in.

Take a look at this link, and don't miss the slideshow.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Sweet!  As Airbus claims the A380 will save the planet, with lines like that and all that composite, "Snoopy" will actually deliver the goods with being a fuel meiser!  LOL!!!!

Its supposed to give passengers better head and leg room, and be less noisy. Boeing is supposedly sold out of the 787 until 2014
