Re: A380 for Quantas
Glad to see them being delivered.
Talked to a guy in Seoul who flew on the Singapore Airlines one, said it was amazing.

TCA....Trans Canada Airlines.
The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no
After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.
