No, it did not skid and it was not on a runway but the BBC did accurately identify Heathrow.

A330 Comparison

Exactly. The main point of legitimate comparison between the two accidents is they both involved Airbuses. That's it until the investigation into the A320 crash is concluded.

They won't. This is just another example of Flight's heavily biased pro-Airbus "reporting". :=

Unfit for Purpose

The A380 is not a "new" aircraft... It's a hugely late and over-budget white elephant that is just "unift for purpose". That's what happens when you let ego get in the way of common sense.
