Guess what name will SQ gives to their A380?

747-312 = Big Top
747-412 = Mega Top
777-312 = Jubilee
340-313 = Celestar
340-500 = Leadership
380 = ???

I guess it will be called Giga Top.

The cabin will be divided into three sections, the upper deck will retain SIA's "rafter" class for obvious reasons, the lower deck will contain two classes,
Grade A
and
Moo

I believe a meal service will be offered during the estimated hour and a half deplaning procedure.

"Overkill"

"Will-Kill-Twice-As-Many-Pax-When-It-Goes-Down"

"Der Flederwal" (perhaps more appropriate for the LH 380)

"Flying Tampon Applicator"

I guess it will be called Giga Top.
My sugested names:

a.- Over weight
b.- Non domestic flight aircraft
c.- Human Cattler
d.- Titanic II
e.- "I wish I was a cargo plane"

Great plane with the wrong duty. This would make a superb emergency hospital, cargo either military or civilian, any other duty that would not get such a huge amount of people in one plane.

As a matter of fact, we do. The older MD 500 (preferred by our pilots) and the new Schweizer (slow and unreliable).

We're in a budget crunch, so no sparkly toys for a while. The Hughes has a distinctive sound that really gets our "prey" jumping. The Schweizer sounds like a flying '71 VW Beetle. Or a souped-up lawn mower.

Don't mention the VW Beetle in that way. Oliver might get offened. But then he probably holds back traffic in the fast lane of the Autobahn. Not allowed as you may know.

Oliver - sauced on Rumpleminze - puttering along in his orange VW Thing with a line of Porsche 911 RUFs stacked-up behind him. Suddenly, James Bond pulls up beside him in his tricked-out BMW 760 Li, pushes a button and blows Oliver's ride to Kingdom Come.
