It's only an A380...

Someone commented on my YouTube'd video of landing in Singapore on 9/3 to the effect that it was grounded in SYD on 5/3 with a spoiler problem.

They have their own video of the disembarkation by stairs from their cancelled flight (which appears to have been 9V-SKA).

It will arrive on 34L at around 0803, subject to change.

I was on this flight. It was delayed 1 hour due to "maintainace on the fuel pump". Im pretty sure we swapped gates with the one originally for the later Heathrow flight.

By the way, the new Changi Terminal 3 is a very impressive building.

Sorry to bring this up again (but believe it or not there are still people who have not seen this big bird in person and are pestering me to show it to them!) but according to www.16right.com we have not seen an A380 all week?

Any ideas if one will be in tomorrow?

Thanks guys
