Perhaps a nice coat of Landor would take your mind off the actual shape of the aircraft :lol:

Parking it behind a big hangar would be an improvement.

They never seem to vary the livery to make an individual aircraft look better.

For example, back in the 1960's they could have improved the looks of the Boeing 707 by painting an end to end pic of a VC 10 with on it *-) 8) :lol: :hide:

As it will operate out of Terminal 5, I wonder if anyone here knows how many A380 stands have been constructed there for it?

I'm pretty sure its T5B Peter, so not the main terminal. From memory there are at least four on the East side
