might be the way its edited then. it still looks a tad cartoony to me

I think I understand what you mean, but that’s just a side-effect of compressing the original image to make the filesize small enough to mount on the webpage.

I see nothing within the image itself to make me think that it’s anything other than 100% bona fide.

Hmmmm.

Does anyone else see a pattern developing there? :diablo:

I have it on good authority that KLM operate the MD11 into Amsterdam on a fairly frequent basis.

Please stop posting links to old videos on YouTube, there’s a good chap.

It’s not really discussion of commercial aviation, which after all is the purpose of this forum.

Is is worthwhile？ I mean A380 is so big. The engines burn more oil landing and taking off.

Crew familiarisation flights would take be taking place anyway, as they always do whenever a major airline introduces a new type to its fleet.

Air France are just taking the opportunity to earn a little extra revenue at the same time, and who can blame them?

I wasn’t aware that Air France were operating the oil-fired variant of the A380, by the way.
