    Currently the world largest passenger aircraft, with a max take-off weight in excess of 1 million pounds. Here is Korean Air's Airbus A380, seconds from touchdown at JFK Airport.

    pretty cool to see but do we need planes that big? I dont want to even begin to imagine the first disaster involving 1 of these things.... guess that's just the Firefighter/EMT in me....
