More than I trust the uneducated freely offered opinions of total fools.

The article is page 5 to page 8.

The Airbus 380 is an incredible achievement. It should be celebrated as such, noticed, and encouraged. The plane will certainly make an interesting freighter as well as a passenger liner. In fact as a large bulk long haul airfreighter, it will probably do better than as a passenger liner as it will make its economy of size scale pay for it in that side of the aircraft market.

I might also point out to those skeptics who decry the A-380 as a white elephant, that  the B-747 went through exactly the SAME naysaying by similar nattering nabobs of ignorant negativity[and technologically illiterate incompetents as well], that currently assail this fine aircraft.

Give this fine bird a few years on the market, and those idiots will be revealed for the fools they are.
