Gisteren zag ik hem op de radar verschijnen onder de naam SIA308. Hij vloog trouwens toch redelijk strak over Nederland (van ca Nijmegen tot Zeeland).
Ik hoorde trouwens ook iets dat gister of vandaag de beide A380, van de totaal 3 A380's, ingezet werden naar Londen (zowel 's ochtends als 's avond één) maar dat dit binnenkort of zeer snel maar één A380 wordt.
