Contrail Spotting: Emirates A380 Passing Leipzig (Germany)
Channel: LEJ.approach
Date: 26/12/2014

As Emirates (EK/UAE) doesn't seem to plan on treating me to one of their aircraft on my local airport ;), I take what I can get ... like this A380 cruising at an altitude of about 37,000ft. Interestingly it was followed shortly afterwards by a Boeing 777 of the same airline, which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ-zdhuyXdU

The aircraft shown is A6-EER, an Airbus A380-800, operated by Emirates, the biggest customer for Airbus' Super Jumbo (a.k.a. "Airboss"). Having performed its first flight in July 2013, this aircraft was only 1.5 years old by the time this video was shot!

By the way: I'm not quite sure what that "comment" at 0:31 was supposed to mean. :D
