I used to work at Airbus as a lifting gear contractor.
All old news to me this I was there when they started the whole thing and made the jig for the wing to be made in.

i would be afraid to fly in that... way to big... and you know all that crap about casinos and gyms wont matirealize(sp) they pack as many seats in there as they can
what happens if it looses an engine? would it still fly on 3?
also a bit worrying that it hasent flown yet?

Airbus Recon it will stay just under the 400+ accomadation i think and keep the bars and gyms and whats not, but insiders recon they will be gone within 4 years with a 600+ seating, we will see
