The Airbus A380 is getting all the press for being a mega-sized aircraft (albeit a delayed one now), but fifty years ago there was another double-decked aircraft that arguably set-aside gracefulness for double-decked haulage – meet the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser.
I don’t mean to slag on the A380 though. I do love the neo-Kubrickian interior. I can’t wait to fly one somewhere.
