    You'd go for the 787 quicker so? Or the 7E7 if you're a bit of a tree hugger. Nah, i like it. The fact that its stupidly massive i like.

    I'd hate to be at that gate with 549 other people trying to get on the plane.

    Judging by the size of it the gate, check-in, security - in fact, the whole airport - will probably be inside the plane anyway.

    Europe we have the biggest plane in the World. The strongest currency in the World... and to paraphrase The Strawbs.....
    You won't get me I'm in the European Union/ You won't get me I'm in the European Union/ You won't get me I'm in the European Union/ Till the day I die..

    Channel 4 News had a clip of a Boeing UK guy saying that there was no way Airbus could recoup the investment, and then a clip of the Airbus chief at a press conference saying, in heavily accented english, but loudly and clearly:

    "Zat is... complete bullsh1t."

    I nearly wet myself laughing.
