I have to admit to being very biased towards Boeing, always have been and always will be.

That A380 looked fat and ugly to say the least.

Eastwest: any mug in any aircraft can achieve a smooth landing if you land as long down the runway as they seem to have done. They passed the touchdown zone ( 1000' to 2000' ) and were still airborne!! They were obviously making sure of a smooth arrival.

I for one hope the ugly duckling flops.
