I assume that he plans to fly around on it. What would you do with an airplane?

Well then he's really stupid. :rotfl:
Why spend 300 million for buying an airbus and send it crashing on a building when he can hire 2-3 gentlemen to highjack an airplane and accomlish the same thing.
All for a fraction of the cost ? :hmm: :|\\

That's just it: Typical excess. He wants a flying chateu. He's got one. If he can afford to buy one, he will, no doubt, gut it and remodel the interior as he sees fit. You won't be seeing 830 seats when all is done.

What the hell is this guy thinking??? an A380? Madness, he should have bought an F-16 instead lol - block 42, the big wide HUD is cool and I prefer the two tone blue/grey paint scheme :p.

Hell what am I thinking..."hello, yes, I would like to purchase the Type XXI Uboat that your displaying" lol :ping:. Now I just need a crew, any offers Kaluens?

If I were an arab i'd be sick of airport security as well.

He isn't a bad guy, just sick of getting searched with the gloves.

I think he should fill it up with all of his friends and then fly into a no-fly zone, but then I repented and realized it was a sin. :oops:

That airbus looks like it could fit a whole lot of guns... put a machine gun at every window on the plane and learn how to manuever an airbus at less the 1000 feet and you could cause alot of hurtin.:p
