I lived in Flower Mound, TX, just north of grapevine lake and the DFW airport - every couple of days, whilst walking g my dogs late at night (when the night temps were only in the 90s lol), we’d see the Qantas A380 either arriving into DFW or departing from DFW, taking an initial departure/arrival pathway right over Grapevine lake and across the town airspace as it banked left westward towards its flightpath… it was always a cool thing to watch as that aircraft was so dam big and the sound of its jet engines powering it off the ground up to its cruising speed was indeed awe inspiring - my 2 GSD would just sit and watch it pass by

The A380 is a marvel. I recorded almost the entire fleet of BA's A380s. The only two I haven't recorded are G-XLED, and G-XLEG. It would be nice to see Qantas' A380s at DFW again, but that's unlikely to happen. 🙁

It won't be too long before BA swaps back from the A380. Later on in October, no A380, the 380 returns in January, but BA will downsize again come late March next year all according to what I've read.
