Here is an interesting one. SFO and manual landing in an A380. The RT is OK as well!!

It's an interesting video. It's also a popular post having been posted in Spectator's Balcony on 3/2/13; R&N on 26/7/13 and Fragrant Harbour on 28/7/13. The search function is your friend before posting.

Whilst having my little moan, I would also say that this is neither a rumour nor is it news.

Enjoyed the vid.. Don't miss the aircraft calling me a "Retard" every time I landed though.

Have been a passenger on that flight, but don't recall hearing the Wagner upon landing.

As a further thought, as it involve the airbus automation, many threads, SFO approach, many threads, RT in the USA, and A nice video it seemed worth posting in R&N.

SFO approach, many threads
Not that you are making such an accusation, but I am not trying to set myself up as an unofficial moderator, merely making a suggestion or two. I respect your opinion/right to post but, with respect to the quote above, have to comment that the two most recent postings of the video appeared in SFO approach threads, one of them on R&N so it's been aired anyway.

Doubtless the mods will look at things in their own way. Whether they decide to leave the thread in its present place, or move it elsewhere, is not up to me.
