The GIANT Airbus...My heart will go on!

I'm still in Phoenix , but I printed my boarding pass and will join my fellow "tens of thousands of passengers stranded" heading back home today on US Airways, "The Wings of Ostriches" (which, by the way, is a flightless bird).

Air travel is in the news today. Yesterday two giant A380 Airbus' landed simultaneously in New York and Los Angeles. That's good news and bad news as they were flying for US Scare as a demonstration and were heading for Chicago and Atlanta.

But the good news is that the giant 800 plus passenger jets both landed safely . I can only imagine the joy when one of it's future flights are cancelled. Today's airlines can't find room for cancelled passengers if the plane was a regional 60 seat jet. 853 passengers....come on ...."Yessir, Mr. Jake, because you checked with us early after cancellation , we can rebook your ass in a seat sometime next October".

Remember Titanic. bigger...Bigger ....BIGGER. I understand that on yesterday's flight, Leonardo Di Caprio held Kate Winslet onto the front of the plane as it taxied down the Frankfurt runway for takeoff, "I'm the king of the wor....." , he yelled, not finishing the sentence before he was blown off the nosecone.

How long will it take to board an A380? "Folks in Zone 60...please wait your turn. We're only pre-boarding those whose cancer has metastasized during the wait".
By the time you get off the thing, if you're in row 70, the person waiting to pick you up will have evolved......"Honey, didn't you used to have a pinky toe"......and she'll answer in a Conehead-like robotic trill....."We do not need those anymore! Where have you been? You've never met your grandclones!"

Well, its big like the Titanic........now they can legitimately have steerage. No, wait, that won't work...they fed them.
