I've noticed the paint jobs on BA's 380's look really faded / dirty. I figure that was a result of their Covid storage.

BA A380 grounded at KDFW

Appears a BA A380 has taken up semi - permanent residence at DFW for a week now.
Parked on the future " Concourse F " ramp.

Anybody privy to what's up with this big bird?
