Before they even started digging up Stand 14 & 12 to make the new A380 stand 12, MAPlc (as it was) invited all ground handlers and service providers to review the plans to agree it was a workable stand.

I attened a few of these meetings and asked the daft question of why no Airbridge, it was initally rejected due to funds and not much chance of seeing an A380.

From what 'The96er' said it seems they have gone with the design we sketched out, i even have the paper copy of the origional plans with the pen over the top of where the Airbridge should go.

At least they finally have seen scense....if they can built it in time.

Just for the record there are no A380 Upper Deck Passenger Servicing Steps ready for use yet.
