It is monsterously beautiful.
I love this aircraft more and more.
Graceful? NO WAY! But that is not the intention of the design. I also would ask many of you who don't like it or are skeptical about its look to be patient and wait for the finished product to be completed and painted.
Also, wait to see the finished product alongside other aircraft in an actual airport environment. When the first test plane flys, it will be seen at airports around the world and there we can have a better perspective of the look along side other aircraft we see in photos at JP.net (where else).
Furthermore, the real test is the first true 3D test which is the real life viewing. Wait until you see this in person at an airport near you and I feel you'll be stunned and amazed by it's imposing look.
There really has not been a new look at an airport since the 747 went into passenger service in 1970 with Pan Am. Except maybe for the DC-10 and L1011, the other newer types that we see today resemble older aircraft but in a nicer, larger, more cleaned up way.
The A380, just like the 747 is unique in its 50% greater size than the Jumbo and its two full size passenger decks.
Lotta fun, lotta fun.Happiness is flying at FL400 and over 1000kmh
