The A380 is an awesome aircraft, with seating around 560 Qantas has 12 of these beasts on order which are due I think mid next year. These will be replacing Qantas's older 747's along side with 777's-200LR-ER or A340-500's (choice has not been made yet) The A380 engines are I think Rolls Royce Trent 900's with 70,000 lb of thrust. It has 49% more floor area than a 747-400 and a MTOW (Max takeoff weight) of 586,000kg. Airbus also has plans to launch an A380-900 which will seat around 670 .

Cant wait to watch the first flight :spoton:
