- Today we explore an aviation mega project, the Airbus A380, we compare its capabilities vs the Boeing 747, 787 and 777. Why is the Airbus A380 such a failure, what is the insane engineering behind this beast of plane. Join us as we uncover this aviation mystery and why massive airline companies such as Emirates are now selling them so fast.

Once a king of the sky… Will we ever see a return of the A380 on mass scale?
How is Emirates regretting buying this aircraft, when they have publicly stated they want more of them, updated with new engines.
Airbus just needs to figure out how make the A380 way more efficient. It's an amazing aircraft and I believe it will make a comeback.
Bigger planes means lesser traffic means less traffic jams and more safety.
The A380 is a logistical nightmare for airports except for Dubai.
This is full of absolute nonsense. Never heard of fact checking?
Actually this video got the primary miscalculation of Airbus wrong. Airbus was betting on what is known as the Hub and Spoke aviation strategy in which the major aviation hubs would be over crowded and thus need bigger plane to ferry passengers there before switching to smaller planes to get to their final destinations.
What happened instead was smaller plane got longer ranges and opened up direct flights to more cities which had smaller airports which could not accommodate the A380 size. The market also shifted towards liking direct flights, bypassing the hubs
GPT’s rough calculations for total losses for the 380 is $13B
Total profit for 747 is $77B
Filling the aircraft with 850 passengers? Really, are you sure? What airline has 850 seats on their 380?
The story is kinda similar to the Great Eastern Steamship back in 1859. A great engineering feat but too big for the target market and couldn't recoup the operating costs.
Looks like Emirates had a prime seat at the table with Airbus design. They swayed the design their way.
NO NO NO , TO MANY PASSENGER RESTRICTIONS AND RUDE AIR PORT SECURITY ! MEANS , FLYING NOT FIRST CHOICE ,ANY MORE , ! ! !
This is why I am looking at flying private.
A used 380 goes for 50 million
Airbus built this just to show boeing that they could do what boeing could not..that is build a double deck plane..its not about the cost is about bragging rights
The national electrical grids PRICE to build over the last 100years is hidden and very expensive.
MARKET for future electricity is expected to expand 5 times.
DEMAND for inexpensive electricity is critical and so dispersed generation and storage are also critical.
No transmission grid expansion is necessary.
The existing national transmission grid is humongously expensive and fragile.
Black outs and patch ups explode power bills.
Central generation of electricity can not be expanded economically the PRICE of transmission is humongously stupid.
The A380 project is a baby.
Economics makes or breaks all projects.
I have digressed, but you raise the often ignored economic situation of the entire project, all projects.
Future humongously big projects must learn from past humongous projects. And even if they are different technologies. 😊😊
Tesla Megapacks to the rescue!
@@RTD3 yes part of the solution.
Grid protection as the electricit future expands.
The grid is a $TRILLIONS infrastructure asset. 100years to build. But only transports 15% of all energy used.
Community batteries with Rapid chargers will be a stepping stone starting with early adopter suburbs.
Offgrid capacity for customers will mean the grid can be UNLOADED and protected.
Airbus was 25 years late!! It’s just that simple!!!
Passengers love it, air lines hate it because they fucking suck at customer service and flying blows
