Stretch the A380...

[MarkusS]

The A380 already is the largest passenger plane in the world and not many know that an even bigger version is in development. Airports worldwide are on their limit but the market is growing. Airlines can only realize such growth with massive airplanes. The A380 is the global coreproduct, but airlines demand even more bigger airlines.

Lufthansa, Air France and also Singapore Airlines have great interest in the A380-900. That model is long planned and will enter service around 2020. It will be roughly 80m long and have a capacity for up to 960 passengers. Thats almost 100 more than the normal A380-800.

With its maximal launch weight of 590 tons it will reach the same region as the Antonov 225.

It will be really exciting to bring this into reality. But i can also evryone tell, if you have the chance to fly A380, then do it. Its really a great experience. The place inside is enormous, it is not just big but also the fastest airliner in service right now with a top speed of 1020km/h. ts range is also unrivaled.

Other than Emirates, no one else is going to buy it, the program is already suffering.

With new World War the civil airplane industry will cease to exist. 90% of all Airways will go bankrupt and Tourism will be luxury.

This is not wrong.

Lufthansa just recently ordered two more A380, Emirates ordered 50 A380 more last year. And Amedeo ordered 20 new A380 just few weeks ago. So far we have 324 orders in the books right now. Boeing 747-8 has only 120 orders and is stagnating fast. So our A380 is basicly the only product in this premium class.

With new World War the civil airplane industry will cease to exist. 90% of all Airways will go bankrupt and Tourism will be luxury.

We live in the 21st century, not in 1914. There is no world war and there will be no world war. Beside that the A380 is not a tourism airplane. It is mostly used for business since most normal people don´t do such intercontinental trips for holidays.

You will see when Russia starts the WAR. You better hope that EU will swallow their sanctions and dont provoke Russia to more drastical Moves.

This is laughable. We decide with who we trade. If we dont want have business with russia, then this is our decission.
