That is correct... I can't wait to see that !!!
For your information, you can read in Jet Power (page 50) that Peter Michel sold his huge 747,
and is working on an even bigger A380...

Nahhhhh........
Its for sky sports, the cricket is starting soon........ well at the risk of offence, it seems the build up is just as exciting and the tension just as boring..........
Mind I saw a piccy somewhere today and it do not half look big!!!
How big is the American Galaxy transport in comparison?

First flight scheduled for tomorrow around 9:00 AM.
My camera is ready.
The hole company is invited to stand next to the runaway ( to a reasonable distance).

For those with Sky just got to Sky News (501) and hit your red button. Full live coverage on at the moment, nice close up walk around of the aircraft. The engines are running but still an hour or two off first flight yet.
