Sure is ugly IMO. Outside of the Falcon business jets, the French design the ugliest airplanes.

Nice picture. I didn't know they were doing a full livery yet. Hope to see that aircraft in Dubai this week for the Airshow.

Technically I can't bid it for another 4.5 years as I'm in a 6 year seat lock on the 777. That always changes based on the company's needs, but I have no desire to fly it right now. I'm having too much fun in the 777. I would much rather stay in the 777 and hope for a move to the 787 if/when Emirates gets those.

I did see the A-380 up close this week. Boeing's 777-200LR in the very nice blue Boeing paint scheme was sitting right next to it. Which one do you think I liked better ? The A-380 is ugly, it looks like a Beluga from the front. The 777-200LR, on the other hand, is a beautiful machine.
