RE: What engines will the A380 use??

Good point about the wheels e.t.c. Kabir, in the sense that this was actually one of the main engineering problems when designing the aircraft. One of these was the problem of how the many wheels that are required to share the load would fit into the (outsize) undercarriage bay. Another was that an aicraft (beleive it or not) generates a great deal of it’s noise on landing, not from the engines, but from the drag from the flaps and undercarriage e.t.c. It was thought that this would have exceeded European/worldwide noise regulations, but I presume that the problem has now been sorted out. Any further information about this anyone???
