bob.dino 1 #5 November 9, 2013 Yup. Speaking as someone that used to live under Sydney's flight path, the A380 beats the pants off the 747-400. And the sooner UPS and FedEx get rid of their MD-11s, the better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
otterboy 0 #6 November 9, 2013 jakee***Not when you are looking at it from the cockpit of a 747. Even though it's bigger? Yes, I have not seen a -900 but the visual of the -800 makes it look like a short fat sausage when you are looking at it from cockpit level. Something about the upper deck on a 74 makes it look longer. I have not seen them parked side by side though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
