Flying the BA A380: BA902/BA903 02.08.2013

My experiences of today's flights, in a 20 minute YouTube video format. A big thanks to everyone involved with today's service and to the "intrepid" fellow FT'ers who helped along the way with organisation and lounge guesting.

Enjoy.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvFx_OsL5wc

Great video Schwann, and apologies that I had initially hijacked your thread with my post-in-the-wrong-place.

And sorry too not to have said hello on board!

Very good video! Glad go see myself in odd places. I'm glad I wore new shoes as those are my big feet being told off at the top of the spiral staircase!

Good to hear Rob's welcome of us "Intrepid FlyerTalkers" recorded for posterity.

Thanks! I didn't see anyone else with a camcorder/etc, so you must've kept a low profile!

Nice video Schwann.

Does this count as the inaugural flight though? Isn't it just considered a training flight?

I guess it's subjective. In my opinion, this was the first commercial passenger service for the A380; therefore the inaugural flight. It's how the crew announced it anyway.
