LOWW gave a welcome to the A380 today, some pics here:

And even everyone seems to adore the plane -
it feels a bit of a power-show by Austrian Airlines' new mother - some of the pics even refer to that...
Cheers,
Nick

Alright Garry, so the text says people adore it...
No actually the text is very general, people like you here don't need it...
Cheers,

I saw an A380 for the first time recently at LAX. It was neat to see one but the thrill was shortlived so I went back to girl-watching.
