 Quantas Airbus A380 EGLL-YSSY (via WSSS) |
 |
| This enormous bird will be able to carry 555 passengers at a top flight level of 43,000 feet. Here, I've imagined a flight from London Heathrow (EGLL) to Sydney (YSSY) via Singapore (WSSS). This is the first leg of the journey, across Europe. More to come. |
 |
| The Quantas bird leaves England behind and prepares for a trip which will take the best part of a day. |
 |
| The A380 climbs to cruise over the channel, heading for The Netherlands. |
 |
| At FL245, with the coast of Britain behind her. |
 |
| Contrails at flight level 270. |
 |
| The Quantas aircraft heads for the sun, and Europe, on the first leg of its lengthy flight. |
 |
| Now over Europe, the Airbus all but flies itself along 17 pages of waypoints programmed into its Flight Management Computer (FMC). |
| The aircraft flown here is the Abacus Airbus A380 which is available for FS2002, FS2004 and FSX. I flew it in FSX. The a/c includes many interior views, so you can fly as a passenger as well as a pilot! The FSX version includes a virtual cockpit and a working FMC. |
