back down under

Hello people!~...been awhile huh...sorry....Penang was treating me too well i barely had any time to blog...ahh....now...its all over...my trip..my holiday...has finished and now i am back to reality...back to my usual life/routine....back to the land down under......

1st of all....I am proud to announce that i have finally...FINALLY had a chance to board the worlds largest commercial passenger aircraft....the Airbus A380 by Singapore AIrlines

 

Picture taken @ Tullamarine airport upon arrival

ahhh...sooo...what is the big deal about this plane? IT IS A BIG DEAL!....ill leave the engineering stuff aside...but the experience is priceless...

its like taking a ride in a Rolls Royce Phantom...why so? because...it is so eerily quiet in this plane. I have read many reviews about this plane on the quietness of it but i was really skeptical. How can you insulate the noise from 4 giant thrusting turbofan engines sitting only a few metres away from you? HOW!!!....but!!! believe it or not...Airbus engineers managed to do it. During take off, you can barely hear the noise from the engines..YES! all for of them...of course I will be lying if i say i don't hear them at all, but, just take the noise of a normal aircraft taking off and you lower the volume by 70%...yes! that was what i think how quiet it was...30% loudness of a normal aircraft taking off.

Next most amazing thing is, as most of you might notice, immediately after take off or just before landing, you can hear the landing gears retracting. This usually gives a really lout exploding sort of noise. And this time i am not exaggerating. IF you do not pay any attention to it, you will not hear that noise at all in the A380.

The inflight entertaintment in the SIA A380 is also amazing. You get bigger screens in economy class, you get USB ports for your ipods/iphones or even load files from your usb sticks, you get LAN cable ports (not sure if they are functional but the fact that its there is good enough), and finally you get an  RCA video input port too. The controllers for the entertaintment system was of awesome build too with the buttons lighting up to help you see in the dark.

Then there is a very cool feature added. They added a reading light just below the monitor (shinning straight onto the retractable tray/table). I think this is a brilliant idea for international passengers to fill up their arrival cards! 

LOVELY!

comfort wise, i still prefer seats in the BOeing 777ER of Singapore Airlines. No particular reason but i think it was because the seats did not recline as much in the A380 as compared to the 777ER.

Anyways....enough...i was just too excited to let u guys know how cool this aircraft is and would 100% want to board it again. 

hmm..i don't really want to blog without pictures. The pictures i took are all in my netbook right now. My room is in a HUGE mess and my life is not good right now... I AM HOMESICK! lol....so gimme some time to sort out the pictures and i will blog more about my penang trip...

again....i apologise for the lack of updates...i promise after these few days, once i have settled down to life in Melbourne again, i will continue my frequent updates. muahaha
