Denver (KDVR)-It is a huge huge plane of one million pounds, drawing huge crowds at Denver International Airport for several months.
For the first time in the history of Denver International Airport, Lufthansa was flying the Airbus A380 from Denver to Munich throughout the summer and autumn, and a double -print passenger plane attracts hordes from “AV Geeks”, who could not get enough of the largest passenger plane in this field.
“Everyone stops and takes pictures as they are surprised by the size of the plane,” said John Handler, director of Denver in Lufthansa.
The plane appeared for the first time in nearly two decades, but for Denver Flames, this is the first opportunity to climb on board. Some fans of the plane appear to the airport without a ticket for its ride: they are stopping in the airport garage to watch the Hargantwan plane take off and land every afternoon.
Due to excessive size in A380, Fox31 Airways and Airport officials gave an exclusive tour of the huge plane, which can accommodate 509 passengers and require a 21 -year -old crew on a nine and a half hours to Germany.
The plane with engines consisting of four pounds has been loaded, which is fully loaded with more than one million pounds, and carries more than a quarter of a million pounds of fuel. The plane is very large so that it requires only special equipment to load food and supplies on the plane.
While thousands of passengers have seen the excitement of the A380 during the summer, the time is running out of the so -called “King of Heaven”.
Captain Tom Stehhhout, a Lufthansa A380 pilot, told Fox31 that these Jumbo planes will be traces during the five years to the next ten years, because the latest and smaller planes are more efficient and lowest.
“The time of the four motor plane has ended. They will all go to two motors, such as the A350, and 350 more modern. But guests like (A380), the crew loves this, and the plane is nice,” he said to Fox31.
Flights on Luffhansa A380 will continue outside Denver until October 24, and the flyers are already asking Lufthansa if he will return next summer.
Handler said: “Optimistic that he will return next year,” Handler said.
