The A380 at LHR

Here are some pics of the A380 that I've been able to snag while on the ramp at LHR. It does not initially appear to be as big as it really is. I think its the very wide fuselage playing a trick on your eyes. When it's side by side with a 747, you get a better frame of reference, and that' when you notice how tall the vertical tail really is.

At the jetway at LHR:




Pushing back at LHR. My lens was not wide enough to get in the entire wingspan...


The A380 next to my 777 at the gate. Not a great pic, but its interesting to see the height of the jetway to get to the A380's second story.
