Undoubtedly a technological triumph.....but god it's a ugly thing!
Couldn't agree more... that snout, those piggy eyes.... Still hesitating between "Whale" and "Hippo".
Once there were graceful jets such as Concorde and VC10s at London Airport. Somehow, compared to those, the 380 is, well, just plain dull.

Unless you're a born-and-bred plane-spotting anorak, I challenge you to distinguish a 757, 767 or 777 from an A330.
Or a 737 from an A319, A320 or A321 at first glance.
As to the RJs, let's give that a miss, shall we?
