Boeing 747-8 will be dancing by now... no competition again from it's rival.

We all have our preferences grin

Comparing Airbus 380 with Boeing 737max is an insult to the Airbus380. That Airbus 380 remains an engineering marvel. If not for economic impact on Airliners, Airbus 380 will fly for the next 50 years.

So long Airbus 380s the world will miss you!
I just hope they don’t end up here in Nigeria as usual na
Retiring or Terminating Airbus 380 doesn't mean it is not good. It is actually an engineering marvel and the best commercial plane currently in operation. And I doubt if any Nigeria Airliner can acquire one. Airbus 380 can take up to 834 passengers and Airliners make no much gain flying them as they are mostly flown half filled,hence the need to terminate their operation to maximize profit.

wawu so you’ve been talking what you know little or nothing about.

Airbus is an airplane manufacturer with several models
There’s A220, a320, a330,a350, a380(being discussed on this thread) only the a380 got quad engines the rest are twin. Note that these models vary in size and capacity with a380 being the largest.


That's incorrect bro. There is another variant of the Airbus family that is quad engined.....the little known and unsung A340. Just like the A380, it has fallen out of favor with many airlines in recent years because of its gas guzzling 4 engined configuration. Flew on it from Paris to Reykjavik, Iceland some time back. Huge but very comfortable smooth gliding aircraft, smaller cousin to the A380. Sad to see these massive monsters of commercial aviation receding into history. Very very sad. Those monstrous niggas are a beautiful compelling sight any day, stunning spectacles, majestic monsters of sophisticated engineering. Just heartbreaking to see them go into retirement at such aeronutic young age.

A340 wasn’t on my list just as I left out the A321 and A319 the list wasn’t exhaustive.
I was only comparing the A380 with the rest on the list to buttress the point that there are airbus planes without quad engines.

The plane is too big to be commercially viable! Where will you see 800 people to put on the plane? Airlines prefer the A350 that takes around 350 people.
A380s can be used for hub and spoke operations

If and after Emirates Airlines terminate their own fleet of A380, that will be the end of the beautiful giant bird.

Just like the Concord, the world will surely miss A380. cry
^^^Concord, 747, A310, A380... TRULY ICONIC!
