Thumbs up A380 Delivered

I have just watched the delivery of the A380 to Singapore airlines. Very nice aircraft. The CEO made some interesting comments along the lines of "You have to look after your crew and pilots", I thought this was obvious but it looks like they've actually put some bits in to make a difference - mirrors, larger galleys ergonomially designed to minimise lift and twist operations, and even foldaway seats in the galleys. The Airbus representative was indicating that they expect other airlines to adopt some of these ideas.
