Aviation Photo #0989940 Airbus A380-841 - Emirates (Airbus)

Oh man run before that monster eats you!!!Can't believe how big this engine is,the power is simply unimagineable.Hope we'll see some photos of EA7200.

All I can say is..WOW...That is a huge aircraft...I would really like to see one in person

Beyond awsome!

This excellent photo clearly demonstrates the huge diameter of the A380's engines. About the width of a B737 and a truly remarkable piece of engineering!

One of the most amazing A380 shots I have ever seen!

Only a GE90-115B looks better

Great comparison!The Dimensions of this Marvel are awesome!Well Done

Thanks for keeping these photos coming and reminding us just how big this great aircraft is!.

Matthew

That is... as if its not real, scary... awesome comparison!

WOW....That is very impresive.. Wish i could see it in person

Excellent photo! Gives you a good perspective on the size of the engine.

Holy cow! this thing is err... big...

The plane is Huge, the engines are too... But it´s nearer than the man!!!

It's amazing what can come out of little man's brain to make such a huge machine for the benefit of mankind!

Wow, that engine looks huge, and the man so small!

It's fantastic see a man and the engine on the same photo, I can have a good idea of the dimensions of this airplane

Surely a lot of those men fit into that enormous engine. I've hears somewhere that one of those A380 engines is as big as the fuselage of a 767!!! :O

Sorry got to change my boxers... birds (and Humans) have no chance against that bubba

Very impressive photo, i like it!
It is a huge engine, but that man on the picture looks slightly out of proportion, compared to other photos on the net. Either he's quite short, or, most probably, he's standing behind the engine and hence further away from the photographer then the engine.
I wonder if anyone can explain to me what he's doing with that orange thing in his hand.

WoW ! (That man is definetely a few metres behind that engine as you can see him mirrored in the back side of the wing and on the edge of the shadow)
Thank You for that pic!

Very nice pic! And guys don't think wrong about this guy hehe, I know him very well, he's the Officer of DIA Planning Section, so prob he's trying to on planning something for the A380, and that thing what he's holding is a Pad which used by Marshallers. Not sure but I guess there is someone else on the otherside and they're giving signals to each other.

Well, the person that is in the pic is behind the engine. The GP7200 has a diameter of 124 inches, which is about 10 feet. I measured the mans height and he will fit 3 times from edge to edge to the outside of the engine. So, this man is either 3"4" or is standing pretty far behind the engine. Or, I guess he could be an Oompa Loompa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. But still great photo!!!

Absolutely the best photo I've seen!! Those engines are massive!! You can really tell how impressive and how large this plane is from this photo

Great photo to compare the size!!
Very nice

WOW...Unbelievable.

What a huge difference!Imagine the power!

A ducks worst nightmare!A black hole with infinite suction!

Wow!! this photo is just great, b/c it gives you the perspective of the size of that BABY!!

The composition and the addition of a person for scale makes this shot stand out. Depth of focus is nice too.

Why Is The Man There????????????????????????

Look at that picture!It's so beautiful!

Amazing! I am just speachless. *Jaw drops*

Amazing.....so huge

Is it bigger than ge90?? it looks bigger

This is really cool! you can litrely see the the difference between that man and the huge a-380 s engine!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! i wish i was that guy

Awesome, simply awesome!

Very big!!! An excellent comparison. T.B.

Its almost touching the ground!!

Simply amazing, can't believe the size of this thing.

WOW....unbelievable.

This is a great shot! To comment on the person who posted on Sat, Jan 28, this is a Trent 900 by Rolls Royce which has a fan diameter of 116 inches, not a GP7200. Also fan tip diameters measure from tip of a blade on one edge to the tip of a blade on the opposite side of the fan, not from the edge of the cowling.. duh.

Nice shot... conductor of the famed ny philharmonic orchestra????????? probably a technical ground support staff who had marshalled the aircraft...gbala

Nice picture, but unfortunatly it's hard to me to believe that this thing can be this huge, I hope to see one someday

Very nice picture and that guy holding the pad is not so far away, just look to shadows and reflections of the wing, he's standing just behind the wing (i think). Would be nice to fly one like this... Thanks for this great picture!

Looks like the same diameter as the fuselage of a 707/727/737/757.

I wish an egine like this for my hoover. Than I need not clean my flat any more. Just once and never again.

It's so huge. i can't wait to go on the A380 in july. the engine must be at least 5m long.

Sorry mate, but you'll have to wait a little longer...

Man o man. What a photo... I set out to find 'the perfect photo' to show exactly the size of one of those stunners and lo and behold, I found it.
Great shot. Brilliant. You da man :-)

Good luck trying to install the engine to your hoover... :)

Impressive shot of the A380-800 engine with a person standing next to it.

Look at this size not only the engine also the wing so huge it's almost scarry, good job airbus!

And yet they aren't the biggest...Stunning clarity in the pic. Well done Vasco

Best picture of the A380 I have seen!

Its huge i cant wait to see it

Just look at the size of those enormous Trent 900s!

I like the picture and everything, but my choice is still the GE90 and GENX!!

Great shot! Proving that Rolls-Royce are not only the King of the Roads, but also the King of the skies! Well done that chap!

Biggest jet engine ever, the ultimate power

It's just impressive how a person is tiny compared to the engines of the A380...

Yes it's a huge engine...but remember that the man is standing behind it which throws off the perspective.

The massive engine completely dwarfs the rampworker, tis a work of art.

That engine is sooooo HUGE that that guy can just climb in and fall asleep

It's just amazing that these machines fly at all! Imagine the lifting force thanks to those wings. Great Photo! Alexander Titus, Sweden

Who ordered an engine..??

Great shot!

Puts it in perspective doesn't it?

Its a great photo!!

Marvelous picture

Ok Number 3 you back it in over here...

Puts it in perspective. Good Shot

BIG Engine, lol

Those fan blades are very huge so those who see these blades might get thrilled

They ARE huge engines, But sadly not the biggest I live in Uganda in Africa and going through Heathrow in London I saw the A380 and the Boeing 777 and the 777 engines were bigger! Boeing wins again!!!

Good God! Is this an engine, a monster, or both?

This man could stand in there and somebody could sit on his shoulders and they still wouldn't reache the upper edge of the engine. This is what I call massive power! The B777-300 and the A380 rule the skies.

People say that boeing win, as the 777 has bigger engines, but boeing don't make the engines...

Last poster: Airbus doesen't make these engines either.. Rolls Royce does. There also is another engine choice, the Engine Alliance (GE & PW) GW7200.

Great shot of man vs machine, 5 stars.

Marvelous picture

That's what u need to hurl 560 tonnes @ mach 0.85
4 of those..

Great Shot !

My desktop pic!!! awesome

This give's you a sample of how big this plane is in comparance to us.

A380 Verse Ground crew

Nice shot of the engine. Really like this one :D

Really nice photo! However the man is standing quite a ways behind the engine leading to an optical illusion. The engines are big but not -that- big.

This is art at its best. Engineering art that is. And a great capture of it. Optical illusion or not, it really puts things into perspective. It is a huge machine!

The a380 is huge!, great pic.

Great!!!

Cool picture stands out

Airbus A380 a great flying machine indeed...........

This can suck in an Elaphant! Wow - doubleC Mw

Too much !!!!!!!
