"I would like...."

This is my birthright. I deserve it.

Cracking advert Grommit, I think the two guys are a couple of crazy frenchmen, seen em on youtube doing stuff.

Bit like a moped chasing a bus, only in the air.

It looks kosher, but I'd have thought the vortices from the wings would have made this impossible. Wake turbulence has seriously affected full size aircraft that get too close to the heavies, and the A380 is certainly that.

how to blow up a plane without putting a bomb in the hold . just a thought

I would quite like an Airbus A380 for Christmas, too. Not being a greedy sort, I will settle for the Boeing Dreamliner instead.

Reversing it up the drive could be a pain too.

Impressive video, not sure how much of it is composited though, like andytheflyer I wonder if the air churning off the A380 would even make that possible, never mind if the aircraft could fly slow enough.

A trip the the UAE at that time of year should be quite pleasant, temperature wise.

I thought the winglets virtually eliminate wingtip vortices?

Great video though

And the engines.

I remember that, pretty sure the guy survived it just got stuck in the intake duct.
