Finally Saw a A380 !

Well after many times thru LHR I finally got a proper look at the SQ A380 on Sunday. My god the tailplane is HUGE ..... the rest of the aircraft isn't as big as I was expecting. It was sitting on the L stands next to a line of 777, and dwarfed them . Would love to go on it, maybe one day I can justify a trip to Singapore .

yeah, they are quite over-hyped and unimpressive looking. They fly over me on approach every day and I won't bat an eyelid anymore....but if a beluga flies over, ill still take a pic....theyre fantasticly funny/cool yokes!
