Anyone heard about landing problems of the A-380?

Problems? They *always* land. ;-)

I don't get it... lol?...

I dunno, but I don't like airbus planes, I can tell they're made cheaply.

Not that boeing is too much better.

I'm gonna buy a private jet or build one myself (complete with ejection seat).

Anybody plays Flight Simulator or Flightgear around here

I tried fgfs / flightgear. Was beautiful but not so easy to flight...

..eh? That's as good as they get man....ever been on a Russian plane?

well it also depends on the stewardess staff

Yeah, but if I were a pilot and I'd fly like I do in those games, when I land, most people on the plane would have died from heart attacks or would have lost their minds.

For example, take a 777, do a nose dive from 30,000 feet to close to the ground then pull up and land it on the side of a mountain.

there is trees on top/side of mountains, ... usually. Might be quite some sport to land in a forest lol

Well, I don't know about a 777, but certainly small single and 2-prop aircraft have landed in forests before; in some cases people even survived the crash.

Flight Gear is just so much better than Microsoft's "Flight Simulator" - "As good as it gets" claims MS, but I've never encountered such a lousy flight sim as that - I wouldn't even call it a flight sim. After 5 minutes of intolerable nonsense from MS, I just selected "Wrigley Field", chased the Microsoft blimp and went into kamikaze mode. The blimp won - not a scratch - amazing - definitely not built by Microsoft then. At any rate the MS flight sim is sooo bad, I'd be seriously worried if people who've played with it had any plans to become pilots.

Nothing can top the barrel roll of a boeing jet when demonstrating the 707 prototype to company exectutives.

thinking about the roll over for the a-380 in testing ? maybe be impossible?

I would suspect "impossible" would be right; the 707 incident is famous and I wouldn't be surprised if it remains the only heavy aircraft to have ever executed a barrel roll. The stress on the airframe must have been incredible. I don't know if an A380 would even allow you to push the controls to attempt a roll; and if you did I suspect the airplane would have a slightly different shape after the maneuver and be a bit difficult to control and to land.

barrel roll should be possible with all jets /planes for security reasons. they just have to compute bit more those aeronaunotics coding. Wanna be flying in security?
