I assume this means that the Airbus House A380 will be making an apperance at MAN sometime before the EK launch?
ZRH, BOS, LHR, SYD etc all had to have it in to test the airport, and before you say it was purely publicity, the BOS visit wasnt widely known about until the dunlops hit the tarmac.
Also, I know we had a flypast a few years ago, but weve had a new ILS installed since then, and given we are going to be one of the smallest airports to see a regular A380, Id have thought they may want to make sure everything runs smoothly.
We will have to wait until stand 12 is complete however, otherwise the visit will be pointless.
