The sia a380 wasn't resting at C74 but grounded there due to flap malfunction. She has no plan of stopping at any bay after landed.

I was there to look see look see the skb when I heard it's grounded. It's fat, wide from wing tip to tip, low at belly, tall at the vertical fin but it's short from nose to tail. There are no brake units on the last both main wheels of the body gears. The 6 wheels bogie gears not as big as the triple 7 but it's longer. Cool~ :good:

But after that, I heard MAS is cancelling the A380 orders.

TK, when will the beast stop by again?

 

Simon... pls check the first page... I've put up the schedules

She landed at 1434 just now (Saturday 19thJan)...

With spotters from both sides of the Causeway... and one ahmoi with videocam..

 

and she left for home at 1446....

Maybe she'd come back later in the evening

(we'll wait for those still in Met Station to report)

 

But she'll be back between midnight and 5am.
