Catching up...

Catching up with Airbus after twenty plus years.
So we should expect to see them stalling into the sea shortly should we?

Done before by a 747. Only marginally impressive with a small twin with two gigantic engines as opposed to a two deck wide-body with four small engines!

@ Station_Calling....be careful what you wish on others...

@ Station_Calling....be careful what you wish on others...
I don't wish that on any one. I doubt any Professional Pilot on here would ever wish that. What twisted logic did you use to work that one out? I merely made an observation about Boeing "allegedly catching up" with Airbus.

Tubs it's not your link, the video seems to have been edited [ok tampered with] and the video feed seems to been slowed down whilst the audio runs at normal speed until the jumbled audio then the audio actually loops...imo..

pity, having seen the Dutch extender take off’s..WOW!
