The Airbus A380 "superjumbo" is the largest civil aircraft ever built. Designed to carry 555 passengers in a three-class arrangement, it has one-third more seating capacity than a Boeing 747. A planned stretched version would carry 656 passengers, and an all-economy-class configuration would be able to carry more than 800 passengers.
This aircraft having an emergency can be a nightmare for everyone. Do you remember Sioux City, Iowa, the DC10 that lost all hydraulic systems and landed there. I saw this video years ago. We talk about that story in out training classes. Any aircraft at anytime could have the same situation on or near your airfield. Imagine if the A380 had to use your airfield for an emergency landing?? Here is a A380 Crash Chart for you to review and get familiar with the aircraft.
