No shit! Can you imagine being in that little regional? Especially in the front. People in the Airbus felt little to nothing. A small bump some said.

I guess we now know why you are supposed to keep your belts buckled the whole time.

That would definitely make a few folks drop a deuce on the regional.

Damn french

Good thing that mofo didn't catch fire.

Incidents like this are what make me laugh about the idiots who are always complaining about wearing their belts while on the ground.

I'll bet there are some wet britches on that little commuter.

I remember when the A-380 was under development there were a lot of concerns about the space available at existing airports for safe ground operations of a plane that large. It appears the detractors made some valid points. :yesnod:

[Gozar]

That is gonna be VERY expensive on all levels.

:yesnod:

[Yerf Dog]

They should put lights on those jets so you could see them at night.

From the blurry video, it looks like an A 340, NOT an A 380...can anyone verify this?

If it WAS a 340, then this is another example of Non-Aviation morons "Reporting" on Aviation events..........I really can't tell from the video, but it really does look a 340 to me.

:seeya:

EDIT: Ahhh, I just saw a different video of the incident....Looks like it COULD have been an A 380 afterall..

All Robin Meade and the rest of the talking heads know is what comes over their ear buds.

:iagree: It's too big. Most airports can't handle the weight and size of the A380.

Sadly, much like our current POTUS.... :leaving:

That poor little RJ is tough. I like flying on those little guys; they always have a better "feel" - more eager, more fun. I hope it doesn't have un-repairable structural damage.
