For those that have never seen the cockpit on one of these monsters:

Great in full screen!

I flew to Germany from SFO last year on this and wondered what was going on up front. It's quite a beast. Scarebus automation makes me nervous...... :yikes:
 
That BTV on the Autobrake setting seems pretty cool. Brake to Vacate. Chose the turnoff you want and the Autobrakes will make it happen, within reason, of course.
 
That was neat. They had a lot of camera angles!
 
What a great video to watch! Thanks for sharing. :)
 
Wunderbar!

Somethin' related to Lufthansa: I once had the opportunity to spend a week in Frankfurt at the hangars where Lufthansa Technik serviced DLH's A340-600, A330-300 and B747. Those hangars were immaculate, almost sanitized! I've never been in an operating room (without being anesthetized) but i can imagine it can't be much cleaner than the DLH hangars.

And the Lufthansa Technik employees, from the various disciplines I got to see, are so disciplined and do things "by the book" (a bit excessively at times). That place was like a massive chess game.

That's part of the reason I like flying Luftwaffe :D (and they never lost my luggage). Never seen the A380 though.
