Country:  | Yeah, if they were all set up like that, it would make commercial flying more enjoyable again.

Country: | Think Greyhound bus with the scum of the earth as passengers. Now include queueing for 3 hours on top of it between taxi-check in-security-tram-boarding-deplaning-tram-luggage-rental bus-rental desk-hotel parking valet-hotel checkin-repeat. That is much more realistic.

Country: | Yeah the wind tunnel scale version of the flying wing. Boeing has been floating that one in the curtains for years and years. But its radical departure from the existing tube-wings-tail model is likely not going to be a seller in todays near future.

Country:  | I cant imagine the chaos thats going to happen at airport luggage handling when an A380 disgourges all its passengers at once It'll take hours just to wait for you case to get off loaded, At Stansted my longest wait so far has been 2 hours and that was just off a 737 from Barcelona (the flight was quicker than the luggage handling) | |

Country: | Damn I have never waited that long. I would honestly say the latest I have ever waited was about 30 minutes and that was in Atlanta after a flight from Stuttgart, Germany.
