Err Alphonse Toulouse will tell you that the key design brief for the A380 is that it has to fit where a 744 will fit in terms of tip clearance and pavement loading. If it meets this criteria then I reckon the key deal with this beast will be the need to ensure that the stand has at least two airbridges otherwise its gonna take forever and a day to get the brute loaded and unloaded.
