What the A380 proves: pigs don't fly, but white elephants can.
I question the wisdom of putting so many people into one single 'container'. The possibilities of a catastrophe are too great.
I think Airbus took a wrong direction in making this large plane. Rising fuel costs, and modifications needed to accomodate this craft makes me skeptical.
Boeing may be on the right track with the mid-sized widebody Dreamliner. Lower weight and better fuel efficiency.
