I realized that as far as I can tell, other than some excellent photos in the spotting thread, nobody here is really talking about the A380 demo flight that took place Wednesday morning.
Apparently, someone on A.net was invited and will be making a trip report, but does anyone know things like where it was routed, was it visible from the city, who was onboard etc??? I guess everyone is tired of the A380 from Monday but in some respects this is the most interesting aspect of its visit to NYC because it was the only opportunity for locally invited guests to actually fly on it.
PS I saw somewhere that the actual ship that visited JFK, MSN 7, will be going to Etihad (not necessarily in its current configuration) as part of a deal they made to get A380s before their neighbors at Emirates. Can anyone confirm this?
