Neat picture of A380 cockpit

I think Homer Simpson had some input in to the ergonomics - I counted at least 10 cupholders - jumbo size!

 

An interesting thread going amongst SY ATC - due to the 'quick' turnaround times to get the A388 back to SIN, and the problems with cooling the brakes down after landing, the aircraft is rolling through to the end of the longer runways - wont take 07/25 when duty runway apparently.

 

Add the extra miles required for wake turbulence (10NM for a light following), and when there are a few of these operating the runway capacity drops considerably - way below the point where we are now in terms of pax/hour or upload/hour.

 

Hopefully these are teething problems. If not, those not operating these things will be screaming loudly.
