Airbus 380.....the giant of the sky


Picture: Singapore Airlines Airbus A380........

Airbus 380 is the newest passenger aircraft in the market. This is a widebody, four-engine Aircraft. After introduction to the commercial market with Singapore Airlines as the launch customer this april, this aircraft would be the largest passenger aircraft in the aviation industry, with the capacity of 550 passengers in the 3 class configuration. Boeing 747, which has been holding the position as largest passenger aircraft for last 4 decades, will be demoted to number two position. The most exciting feature of Airbus 380, to a layman like me, is its double decker configuration throughout the whole fuselage. Reports are saying that large airports around the globe will need enhanced handling facilities to accomodate these big birds.
Hope to ride on this in near future.

My wife Saymee is suffering from Gall Bladder stones. Today she has another appointment with the doctor. Very often I feel myself guity for not being that much careful as a husband. I have to go to the office early in the morning leaving her behind for the rest of the day. She stays alone in that quiet apartment. This has led to an eating disorder, causing alsar and this stone thing I guess.......as I cannot cook, I can not help her much in the kitchen either. Sometiems I become so frustrated about the fact that our whole household is falling into disorder. For her, this is a huge load to manage the whole household alone. I understand, and feel guilty. Sometimes I think I am such a selfish guy.......today the doctor will say what will be the next course of treatment.......it may involve a surgery to remove the gall bladder. Everyday morning, I promise to become more responsible a husband.....may be this is the time to learn cooking.......and to be more careful to my wife's needs......

Well, I am not at all enjoying this winter in New York. The plan of exploring the New York City during the week end is being deferred again and again because of this weather. Waiting eagerly for the spring, when we together can go out somewhere during the week end.

Missing a lot my parents also nowadays.
