What was a A380 doing today (Thursday)
One of the A380s was plodding round, South of TLS, at medium level this Am (Thursday) for some considerable time with vapour of some sort streaming from the vicinity of number 4 engine.
Anybody here "in the know" able to tell me what was going on?

Airstarts could be a candidate though we saw the aircraft twice about twenty minutes apart and on both occasions it was trailing this continuous stream of vapour .. my first thought was fuel dumping but it was definitely coming from one side only (or does the 'bus do that?).

For nearly 40 years, betting the company has been called "The Sporty Game" - and McD-D lost that bet, as almost did Lockheed.
In fact, a 1982 book by that title ("The Sporty Game", by John Newhouse, ISBN 0-394-51446-5) is still a good read for the student of the airline business.
