The A380 is a living legend in aviation. Owing to its seating capacity for more than 800 people, the 24.1-meter-high, double-decker giant can move a small village from one continent to another without stopovers. It has a wingspan of approximately 79 meters: just a penalty kick shorter than the minimum length of a FIFA football pitch. The plane’s four massive turbines each deliver 70,000 lbs thrust performance. The king of all passenger aircraft weighs over 300,000 kilos when fully laden and fully fueled.
