Photo: Qantas A380 At LAX

Bagged the big one, a photo of a Qantas A380 coming in to land at LAX after a flight from Sydney:

It’s the largest passenger aircraft in the world, and Qantas has it configured to carry 450 people on two decks. Note the double row of windows.

I first saw an A380 nearly two years ago, when Airbus flew one of the prototypes to Bradley to show it to Pratt & Whitney employees who worked on the engines. My video from that flight is available here.
