This documentary brought tears to my eyes! An awesome feat! Kudos Airbus! My first flight on board the A380 was on an Emirate flight to Kansai International Airport; I was awed by the sheer size of this piece of engineer marvel! Ever since then, my interest in the A380 came alive!!! WOW!!! Airbus rocks!!!! Well done!!!

I fly long haul a dozen times a year at least and as a passenger, I choose A380 over anything else. Just landed in a QF A380 today and, yep, comfort and luxury every time.

A380 and concorde both built in Europe are just fine peices of art and design ❤

watched this documentary with enthusiasm, experiencing every emotion shared by those who contributed to this great A380 project !!! I was happy to fly with one of these extraordinary aircrafts, I can share that we had incredible comfort, a take off and landing like no other .Respect and appreciation for all who took part in this great project !! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

At the 17:43 mark "Boeing decided there's not that many routes that are so heavily trafficked and so heavily traveled - consistently - that would require an airplane the size of an A380". And they were right. No one wants the A380 any longer. Its size makes it difficult for many airports to accommodate and its cost to fly makes it a loss compared to other large planes. Check the news stories since 2018 and you'll see the A380 is dying a quiet death. Planes returning after leases are finished can't find new buyers.

I love the A380! I can't tell you how many times I've flown on it, every time it was excellent!

Flying to JNB from LHR via DXB and being informed you have been upgraded for the first time on an A380 is a once in a lifetime event with Emirates. Mercedes S-Class pickup, newspaper reading on the M25, drop off LHR and straight into the lounge. Curry and champagne for supper and board directly onto the plane. Enter your own mini cabin, grab a duvet and get your head down for five hours. Wake up, shower and shave and then jump straight onto the Trip7 to JNB fresh as a daisy and really productive back in business class. I did this every month for almost three years and it was the most reliable, most relaxed form of air travel I did since starting my career on an Emirates flight out of London to Dubai back in 1988. Thank you Airbus, thank you Emirates, together you were an incredible team I shall never forget.

Sorry, I like the A380, but it is a really ugly plane. 747 is much nicer looking. Both great planes, but the A380 is just too big to be anything but a niche plane. The 747 freighters will be flying long after the all A380's are scrap.

As of 2019 the A380 is close to stopping production with only a few more to be produced. The issue with the A380 is that it can be profitable only on high volume routes.

It's just _very_ impressive. Strangely enough the only time I felt I was inside an absolutely _giant_ airplane was on a Lockheed L-1011, it felt like you are inside a palace or something. This was simply due to the design of the luggage storage compartments resulting in a very high ceiling, never seen anything like that since.

It's great to have 2 fantastic competitors, constantly raising the bar.

I was lucky enough to fly from Paris to Johannesburg in an A380-800, economy class naturally. Quite an experience, and one hell of an aircraft. I have also flown on various iterations of the 747, economy class, naturally. From an economy class point of view, I found there to be little to choose between them, but when you see the sheer size of the A380, you have to admire the ambition and imaginative scope of the people who brought it to life. Whether or not it was a commercial success is a moot point for me. I just feel fortunate to have flown in one.

The best ever and possibly forever now that that the airlines and airports have refused to support it and Airbus has been forced to stop building them. Find an airline that is flying an A380 anf fly on it. Its a completely new flying experience. Its a flying cathedral of the skies. You don't even know that you are on an aeroplane. Fabulous.

My best flight ever was on the A380. Flew from JFK to Milan Airport in Italy 🇮🇹. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

In a sense the A380 is a game changer, despite all Boeing-Fanboys here.. The use of GLARE (a Dutch invention commercialised by AKZO-NOBEL) definitely changed the use of lightweight composite materials in the aviation industry on a large scale.

The A380 is literally a flying building. You know they're extra big when the first class cabins are literally named "The room" and "Apartment".

A-380 is loveliest aircraft ever built. I'm very proud of the Airbus because the European co-operation show to the world how to done it perfect and incredibly safe. And let's not forget 747 has that respect to been first jumbo jet in history of the world.

Yushan Yasindu my parents were both born and raised in Europe. I spent most of my childhood there. However, the cooperation you speak of was forced because of one man who simply wanted to "beat the Americans." Not only was the cooperation forced, but it didn't work so well. Did you watch the video? Wiring harnesses were not long enough because French insisted on using new software and no one thought to check if it was compatible with the tried and true software the Germans used. They had to dismantle the first prototype because of that which set the project back a whole year. I would not consider that very good cooperation. The A380 IS a magnificent airplane but while Boeing was busy understanding the business ramifications of new ETOPS rulings, the head of Airbus was so driven by pride/arrogance that he created an economic disaster for his company. I would still love to fly in an A380. I have flown on many 747s but not in many many years because twin engine jets now dominate even the transoceanic routes because of (as I mentioned before) extended ETOPS ratings/certifications that Boeing understood but the head of Airbus missed because of his obsession with "beating" the 747.

The 747 has sold 100s of Cargo planes. The A380 .... 0

Here is my take, as a former Private Pilot. There is a limited number of airports around the world that can accept the Airbus 380. Considerations are runway length, and even moreso, runway thickness to handle the weight. Then there are the gate requirements. . . Not that many airports are equipped to park a plane with the 380’s wingspan. All good, until a flight has to “divert to an alternate airport”, because of bad weather. This does not happen often, but it does happen. The 380 has the challenge, that, although it may be able to find primary airports, finding alternate airports will be a problem. My money (hah, if I had any), would be on the 787. THAT is a plane that WILL change the world. Bear in mind, this is from a guy who flew a Cessna 172. . . the most foolproof airplane ever built.

last time I checked efficientcy has been the future for the past 10 years.

I have flown on both the 747 and the A380, from a passenger point of view, the A380 is a much better experience, very quiet and comfortable.

As a American I think it’s great what Airbus has done. Boeing has gotten a big head and think it’s better than ever one. Airbus gave Boeing a kick in the nuts. Competition makes for better products. I tip my hat to airbus.

Amazing

Just one more terrifying flight, brought to you by the fine people at Rolls-Royce !
