I just read in the Wall Street Journal that the wings will be a composite design similar to the 787. Many US locations getting in line to bid for the plant.
I just flew American's new 777-300ER from Heathrow to JFK and its quite an aircraft. The 777 is my all time favorite aircraft as I have flown the 777-200ER on many 14 hour flights.
Not been in an A380 yet then........
I have been on an A380 several times and 777-300ER many more and prefer the Boeing built 777 Airplane.
I'm astonished by that, I have flown on both quite a few times. The A380 is quieter, more comfortable, roomier, better air con, better technology, better entertainment and considerably better in lumpy air. Only real downside is slower loading/disembarking but it really is not an issue.
