[PierreZRH]

Hey,
How is everyone doing? I took a break from school to go and see the A380 in Zurich for the first time.
Weather could have been better but oh well :P

sweet... very nice piece of history.... A380 over the runway... amazing shot love it....

I'm shocked the 380 craze is still going on. The plane is out there are quite a few in service now. Its gotten pretty common. Although its the only Airbus to actually look different then the others. All of them look exactly the same for the most part.

It will always be a big deal when it visits a new airport, even 10 years from now.

Yea I know that but it seems like its a usual visit there.

That's fine, great captures! :)

Looks like a great event! Not even the weather could deter the crowds - the AA 763W closeup (Pierre) & the TG A346 (Peter) are great, thanks for sharing!
