1320598 2013-01-02 07:05:00 I had the opportunity to get two long distance flights with an A380 and it is mind blowing. It does feel like you are out in space, even more so when you look through the tail camera. A wonderful man-maid toy . Just thirsty. notechyet (4479)

No, Lufthansa from Honkong to FRA and FRA to Singapore. Beautiful flights.

1320602 2013-01-02 19:08:00 So what does a Nexus 7 have too do with a A380 ?

A tricky one I know.

Or possibly more?

Here's some brilliant investigative journalism - ABC's Four Corners - and excellent reconstruction, covering the loss of #2 engine on a Qantas A380 out of Singapore. Amongst other things, the on board diagnostics failed to deliver when they were needed most, but were able to eventually calculate the landing configuration correctly where almost every criterion was out of the envelope.

Qantas A380 Engine Loss (www.abc.net.au) 45 minutes.

By Sarah Ferguson, but don't let that put you off, it's a different Sarah, this version with something between her ears :lol:

Hope you enjoy it. This is TV as it should be, all the time.
