The 747 will always be my favourite airliner - it just reminds me of a different era of air travel. However the A380 deserves respect. What an amazing machine!
Well bla bla bla... the 747 this... the 747 that. 747 is in fact an amazing aircraft, but the A380 is here and WOW... love it or hate it, but you just can't miss it or stay indiferent. Thank god things evolve and we're not on the 1970's anymore :D
This one is AF JPHA, I flew AF JPHD last week and it was a real pleasure. The tail camera gives you a great sense of the sheer size of this beauty when taxiing. Love Air France, love the A380. And this is my favourite video on youtube!
Just got back from Paris we flew Air France there and back. This song was on a play list and it was very relaxing to listen to.. I also thought AirFrance was one of the best flights I have ever been on in my life.. I hate to fly and had no worries when flying AirFrance.. The hospitality was incredible! GPS navigation to see where you are was cool. I wish I could get the rest of the songs that played during the flight....
What all those A380/Airbus haters don't realize, is the fact that the A380 is not even the 747's main competitor. The 747 is slowly being cannibalized by another Boeing aircraft, the 777-300ER, with airlines replacing their 744 fleet for 77W aircraft quicker than the speed of the Concorde. Look at that before judging. In terms of beauty, the 747 will always be the queen of the skies. In terms of the future, the A380 is there to stay. Same applies to the 777 and its future variants.
Flew inside the F-HPJA between CDG-JFK last summer, and it was a wonderful experience. As an enthusiast of aviation and Airbus I feel difficult to believe that I've really flown on 2 A380s only about a year after they entered service with AF, and that I've been able to fly the A380 before the 747, which I've still not flown. And I can say that without a single strange movement in two crossings of the Atlantic the A380 is a great plane! Thumbs up to Airbus & Air France! :D
Wish we still had stars, I'd give this 5* in a heartbeat. This is simply one of the best videos I've ever seen on youtube. I always knew she was a graceful bird, but most of the shots on the ground end up looking rather awkward. In her element, she's one of the most amazing sights I've ever seen - a true engineering triumph on all fronts. 1:45 - 2:03 is just spectacular, you can even see the aileron and spoiler deflection! 3:47 on is great too, wonderful proportions here.
the 787 is second to none... I am an airline employee still to this day and I have flown both, Airbus and Boeing products. Boeing 787 Dreamliner is and will be, second to none. NO, I have,nt flown on it yet, nor the 380 yet, but from all that I can see and here... hands down, 787Dreamliner is the bird to fly on...the bird of the future.
@juanjillocr I agree. The original 747 design is over forty years old. This applys to the 737 as well. Boeing needs to innovate, and design a new aircraft to compete with the A380. If their complacency keeps up, they might be the next "to big to fail" case study.
If you are a airplane enthusiast then you don't care if it is Airbus, Boeing, Cessna, beechcraft, piper, SAAB, tupolev. You just care about the beautiful airplanes and what they can do. to be fair this isn't the most majestic airplane to roam the skies. It is the Concorde. thumbs up for the Concorde.
Airbus and boeing are both amazing innovators... No one is better each have their pros and cons.... stop hating everyone who is supposedly a pilot... you know that you don't know anything about aircrafts...
Though 747 took all steps A380 needed to be built. Without 747 no A380. The A380 is just there because it's there was demand for it. If 747 never was produced, there would have been demand for a 747. Making anA380 from scratch without a double decked plane already existing is a joke. Don't get me wrong here, I in fact love both planes :)
I love the AF livery !
Beautiful plane, amazing music ! I'm in love !
waouu quel bel oiseau. Incontestablement le roi des cieux!!!
Merci pour cette superbe video.
The 747 will always be my favourite airliner - it just reminds me of a different era of air travel. However the A380 deserves respect. What an amazing machine!
Still the best in-flight footage of an A380 on the net IMHO....
This music reassures me as I get on a long haul flight. One reason to fly Air France.
Well bla bla bla... the 747 this... the 747 that.

I never travelled with A380....The best plane ever....i wish one day on my next trip from Athens to New York to travel with the king of the sky!

great music
The Air France A 380 looks the best.
I will fly with her in 2011 from Paris to Narita/Tokyo

I will be on one of these on 18/03/2011 from Johannesburg to Paris - Charles de Gaulle. The Air France A380 is awesome. Best A380 livery.
Amazin video !
The AirFrance livery truly does make every Aircraft a bit more beautiful - Especially the A380...
I'm in love !
A true gem in the sky! Two thumbs up!
Wow, she's beautiful. Majestic, indeed. Thank you for posting this.

Beatiful video, a380 is outstanding!
Beautifull video.
Beautifull Aircraft.

Flown 4 times on the A380. Queen of the sky.
the 787 is second to none... I am an airline employee still to this day and I have flown both, Airbus and Boeing products. Boeing 787 Dreamliner is and will be, second to none.

Airbus 380 - Empress of the skies !
Awesome, can you upload this to a website like rapidshare or megaupload so I can download it?
Fantastic video !!

I
Whatever people say, the 747 is still the queen of the skies.
Air bus and Boeing to me are both great aircraft manufacturers I Love em all :)
@Phughy You're thinking of the 747.
Although the AF A380 is very nice.
Great video. Does anybody know what the title of the track is and if it is downloadable?
unbelievably beautifull...
A380 the gentle giant of the sky
Amazing, the A380 is the God's private jet!
Classiest in the skies :)
although i am a boeing fan, if youve ever seen one of these up close it definitely changes your perspective on things. its a fucking beast!
@badaly91 world can be yours - telepopmusik
how do they get pics and vids of planes while they are in flight do they use another plane??
1:46 - 2:04… Amazing Angle!
Queen of the Skies!
@juanjillocr I agree. The original 747 design is over forty years old. This applys to the 737 as well. Boeing needs to innovate, and design a new aircraft to compete with the A380. If their complacency keeps up, they might be the next "to big to fail" case study.
Tout simplement magnifique! Airbus PLV :P
@Phughy That title has been taken for decades and nothing is about to change that.
Beautiful gentle giant.
How do they film in-flight videos?? I've always wondered that
@Phughy KING of the skies. The boeing 747 in real life is called the queen of skies. Im not trying to be a fanboy or something :)
@RMillerin
Thes song is World can be yours with Télépopmusic
AIR FRANCE
How do they record an in flight air to air video like that. It so damn cool!
Does anyone know the name of the song or artist playing in the background?
Beautiful :)
what is the title of this song? does somebody know?
@Phughy I heard the a380 is the king, the queen is the b747
What is the name of the song? =/
I want it...
A magnificent aircraft
If you are a airplane enthusiast then you don't care if it is Airbus, Boeing, Cessna, beechcraft, piper, SAAB, tupolev. You just care about the beautiful airplanes and what they can do. to be fair this isn't the most majestic airplane to roam the skies. It is the Concorde. thumbs up for the Concorde.

Airbus and boeing are both amazing innovators... No one is better each have their pros and cons.... stop hating everyone who is supposedly a pilot... you know that you don't know anything about aircrafts...
i love it
@hpsadagopan Well said.
Vive l'Europe!
@kylesuo Queen of the sky = 747, King of the sky = A380

@rodelaax Et Air France ;)
that is not true buddy
these planes have more similarities than differences
Doesn't inspire me as much as the 747 still does.
AIRBUS
Thums Up if This Plane is awesome
