Personally I think the A380 is late in arrival, either that or the 747 was well ahead of its time. Either way, im sure this could have been produced a while back and even better things produced. It seems rather odd to me that concorde was so long ago, alongside the 747. Just makes you realise how unpredictable the future of aviation will be. Perhaps we will go back even further and all fly in wright brothers aircraft, known as the "eco-friendly flier" or something rediculous
. I like to think that they will get bigger, quieter and faster. Perhaps we will see "air-cruise-liners"
. Then again cruise liners on the ocean are no longer intended for travel purposes, yet for comfort and hotel-like vacations, so why would we need all that stuff. Who knows, maybe there will be greater variety of aircraft in the future, slow huge and comfortable, small and superfast. I'm pretty sure I just contradicted myself at least 3 times.
