Is it time to crowd the sky or do we keep the Jumbo Airbus? Just asking, so I know which AC to sharpen up on. Either way, I would love to have a SEATTLE to PARIS and return route.

That dang Airbus doesn't seem to be making the money that it should

You know.... The AB is about 15% less on pax runs than the 767... haven't quite figured that one out yet as they are fuel efficient and ticket and cartage rates the same??

However, I can certainly slap some new 747 pax routes on and we can test them... Let's see what happens. One plane that I know does well on the transcon routes is the A380... What do you think?

Also... With the lease of a couple of new 747's we will need to do a few (4 or 5) freight runs extra to pay for them.. Heck, no worries there as Rainbird Jockeys always step up!!

What do you guys think?

I just happen to have an A380 in the back of the hanger that has never flown, guess it's worth a go.

Cool...and you know there are several payware and several freeware ones out there... i have a couple... These birds will give a Rainbird Skipper new respect for the size of the real estate!!

Pipe in here about which freeware you think is the best!

Jeff (excuse me skipper but the post office just called the flight deck and want to know what the zip code is for this Rainbird A380!)

I think the 380 should be the most profitable. Its fuel burn and payload will be above the Boeings.

one more vote for a 380.

How many airports can support the A-380?
If you want to add a cargo aircraft, the USAF has turned all their C-5s into storage.

You need the 10'k min.

Routes? Fron Seattle ---- Ottawa, Boston, Miami, Hong Kong, Paris, and should we try Sydney? wow.... I am buying that sucker from Wilco right now.
