They had a segment on the new Airbus plane on the National Geographic channel and the History channel. They said that the plane is SO big that, like someone else said before me they have to expand airports. The problem with this is that the expansion will mean the tearing down of near by neighborhoods. From what I've seen these shows have shown that there is already a situation somewhere in Germany where an airport is trying to expand itself in order to have to Airbus. They are thrying to build over nearby neighborhoods that have been there for over 75 years and some areas are wine vineyards. Also the major problem they said that because these engine on the plane are so powerful that they create a lot of noise. They mentioned that you could hear the plane from over 15,000 feet in the air and from over 7 miles away. Yeah sure the plane will be the biggest plane in the world but there are huge side affects. Ticket prices they say will range from anywhere between $750-$1,000 per person on the single level and $2,500-10,000 per person on the second level. This isn't because it's first class but it has it's own bar and other insane features.
This is crazy! How are people suppose to afford a trip on this plane? I'm 16 and I even know a bad idea when I see it. Is this really where where going in our world?
