Landing at HNL on 12/11, we saw an Airbus A380 with that designation on the TAIL AND on the limited amount of what we could see of the back part of the fuselage.
Shirley Airbus doesn't need to fly A380s around simpy to advertise their existence---or does anyone know of a carrier that plasters "A380" on their equipment to the exclusion of the carrier name?
Shirley?
