A380 taking shape

Here's a photo of the A380 fuselage cross section.

Someone somewhere else makes a note that the upper deck slides are housed in the ceiling of the lower deck (note the cut outs below the top deck doors). Overhead room is likely to be very limited for seats directly below upperdeck doors.

Way cool to see the real thing! It's always exciting to see real aluminum look just like the CAD models I saw in Toulouse.

Is it an A380 or the new Starship Enterprise?

Yesterday the Travel Channel (or History Channel?, I am not sure) showed a movie of the inside of a "dummy A380".
Very impressive.
