Thanks. Next time I will try to get better shots.

Looks like this Royal Air Moroc's B744 was once used as VIP aircraft, those unusual probes sticking out of engine pylons and tail cone above the APU are jammers for in coming missiles towards this aircraft, they are also known a "Chaff Dispensers". If you guys look at Saudi Royal fleet aircrafts, they all have these devises on them. I don't understand why these jammers were not removed from this aircraft since it in civil use presently or they are just hollow from inside.

I have seen these on HM-1A, 1B, HM-5 and HM-6 (Both L1011-500s)

Thanks Guys, About the A380, to me its not so big. I did at one time take a shot of the A380 at it's hardstand parked diagnally going nose to nose with a Singapore B744 and AI's B777 all at the same time. Unfortunately I had to delete the shot to make room for something more important before I had the chance to Upload it. Sorry about that. The SQ B744 looked bigger for some reason.

Ok Salem, the next time you get the chance take the A380 and B744 in one shot so we can compare which looks bigger. Your photography skills are good enough and I guess you’d manage the shot in a way as these two birds could be compared really well.

I'm pretty much sure it would be A380 because of the double-deck fuselage.

Of course its going to be A380 but when one looks at it doesn't seem so. Im talking about length not width of the wings. The only difference in size is the second floor. According to many around here they thought that it would be bigger. It is bigger in some areas but not by much. Maybe its the way that its designed that makes it look not so big.

I know that it is bigger but because some of the measurements come close and the way it is built it does not look so big. It looks short and fat and also like an A340 with a second floor. Plus all the airport modifications world wide make it seem like it was going to be a whole lot bigger.
