Thats hilarious.

I redid my math and estimated that a point on the A380 would take 0,4 second to cross the fuselage of the CRJ.Avg. speed = Distance / Time, so...V = 2,7m / 0,4sV = 6,75m/s1m/s = 1,94 knots, so 6,75m/s = 13 knots. I think that 13 knots make more sense.

without including perspective, it's more like :Nose to collision on the wing = 50 meters of A380 lengthTime gap = 4.60 secondesSpeed = 10.86 m/s or 21.1 ktsBen

I think we have to call an actual physicist to solve this one .

This is a just payback for what happen to it "F-HPJD", 6 month ago, because of an A330 :Pict 1Pict 2Ben

Apparently the A380 was 'impounded' for further investigation due to the incident. Air France has a member of their fleet out for some time... Maybe they'll consider they much nicer looking and effecient 747-8 Intercontinenral, probably not though.

But without this :Ben

I dont know, the b748 is kinda ugly as well, but not as ugly as the a380

*gasp*How could you?!

Wow, were there passengers in the CRJ? I suppose the pilots where on board since the nav lights were on if i remember correctly. Imagine you are sitting in there doing whatever, either in the cockpit programming the FMC and BOOM your plane turns 70° to the left, lol.

there were 62 passengers on board of the crj, according to a newspage

For the passengers and crew of the CRJ, that swivel-hop must have felt like being grabbed by The Hand of God, fer sure, though anyone who boarded drunk would probably just marvel at how strong those departure lounge whisky shots turned out to be.On an unrelated note, Bendead, is that airborne boudoir picture taken from inside the Airbus 380 ? That private suite would definitely be of interest to passengers aspiring for induction into the Mile High Club, though I can only imagine how pricey such a privilege would be. Oh well, since I most likely can't afford it, I won't ask how much, whenever I board the A380. RegardsTony

On the lowest price, you can fly one way Bangkok-Dubai for 1300$ with emiratesBen

If I had $1,300 burning a hole in my pocket, I might be better off just staying in Bankok and enlisting a few pleasure consultants for a group grope - not that I would ever consider partaking of such wanton debauchery, mind you. Tony

Taxiway width will also be investigated, as the required width is 30 meters for the 380, and JFK has a dispensation to allow for 22 mtrs only. That dispensation will possibly be under the spotlight I guess.Also the CRJ having to stop to give way to a service vehicle may have contributed to the accident also. Both planes would not have met had the truck given way. Unless at JFK, that rule does not apply ? Can anyone confirm that ?CheersJulian

I will try doing a re-make of it on FSX =) And show you guys
