I read an article recently about a Cessna 152 that did a forced landing on a road in JHB. They described it has a "four seater, twin prop Piper C152 Aerobat!"

What can I say, he said it all... :confused:

I am amazed at the progress Johor Baru airport is making if the Citizen is correct. It was pretty quiet last time I was there about a year ago -hope the Immigration and Customs can cope with a 380.
Pity JNB ( Johannesburg ) don't do the same !!!

On the UK version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" This evening, the question was asked about (approx) "Announced in 2005, is the A380 the world's largest ...?" In correctly stating that it was a passenger airliner, the contestant saud, "I recall hearing about this - it's got three decks."

So ... my guess that the people giving the introduction, or the reporters, showed off the two passenger decks AND the cargo deck and that has stayed with (at least) some folks!
