Found this clip in Airbus' A380 news section.
Boy ! They sure have improved the flight envelope for the Emirates aircraft.
" Emirates Airlines is to receive its first Airbus A380 aircraft on July 28th as part of its new fleet of superjumbos.
Emirates is the largest customer for the A380 superjumbo as it has 58 of the aircraft currently on order with Airbus at a reported cost of $18.8 billion (£9.4 billion).
The aircraft will travel from the Airbus facility in Hamburg to a delivery ceremony where the world will get the first look at its interior and facilities.
A380 aircraft can fly up to a
15,000 kilometres altitude, even at full load, thanks to its powerful Engine Alliance GP7200 engines. "
