Guess they'll all be very disappointed when they do get them........................the thing just ain't going to meet it's promised performance.............50 tons short of target max Take off weight due to wing bending when loaded with fuel (fore and aft twisting), won't even do Hong kong- los Angeles direct, so Singapore/QF & Emirates are going to look pretty silly....................
Also the wake turbulence is a big problem, they are talking about creating a new category and you'll loose 1 take off behind every 380 departure..................should annoy everybody
