Never mind getting in the air, it’s the landing that matters. I work for the company that made the body & wing landing gear for the A380 and it’s proven to be very reliable.
What did you fly in today?

ZZ Top is today’s ride and the obligatory visit to the Aviation Megastore near Schipol.
Taken out of service way too early in my opinion.
Piper Super Cub, go anywhere anytime, just gimmie some gas a little space floats or skis.
Erm, they’re still in service.
I think Doug means Concord, not the plane the photo was taken from….
Erm! Didn’t you see Concord??
My first trip in an A380, ever. After 18 years working for the company that built the main gears for this jet I finally get to see what all the fuss is about.
