There is a separate forum for Spotters/non employed enthusiasts hopes and dreams and a place for you to vent your obvious interest.
You don't seriously think
Airlines, Airports and Routes is full of aviation employees do you? It's a half way house for discussion around local airports where pros do chip in but let's not pretend you get too many pilots in here.
Newcastle doesn't see B747s nowadays but Wardair operated back in the day, markets come and go but Dubai will continue to grow I suspect. There's not THAT many seats on the A380, and with GLA looking like a candidate for a mid term up-guage then who knows. Emirates do have loads on order and they will need to place them somewhere. Perhaps we should revisit in a year or two, it's hardly imminent?
Anyhoo he's fifteen years old with his heart in the right place, give him the rest of his life to realise that dreams don't always pan out. The old BAA told us all once GLA would have twice daily United B767s to IAD/ORD alongside BA to JFK. That was a bubble that burst pretty quickly, killed by the coming of the cartels, er I mean alliances. Five years is further than most planners dare predict, which is annoying as fleet planning is for decades!
