Hee Hee the BAA webcast has been "open-mic" for about 5mins - loads of background chatter, who will introduce what etc etc and they haven't realised!!! 
Still at OCK I presume - haven't heard frequency change from 127.525

A380 at Broughton
Just got home from EGNR having watched 2 wonderful low passes; one clean and one dirty. It is a magnificent aircraft; such a beautiful sight, so big but wonderfully in proportion and so quiet! Can't wait to fly in it!

Shame that the BAA 'cast dropped out ... Sky had some good pics but silly announcer said "oh it has a lower deck" 
and now they are giving airtime to Friends of the Earth who is anti-A380 without producing any stats
Have to say she is very beautiful - the views from above/behind show just how graceful is the wing alignment... Union Flag out of the window at mo and .. darn they are good at following a centre line!
