A380 stages show over Hong Kong
Hong Kong. An Airbus A380 cruised past Hong Kong's famed skyline twice yesterday in a bid to drum up sales in Asia for the world's largest passenger jet, two days after scraping a wing tip on a building at Bangkok's international airport. The jet flew over Hong Kong's Tsing Ma bridge before crossing Victoria Harbor, where it passed the 420-metre (1,400-feet) high Two IFC, Hong Kong's tallest building. It then looped in Hong Kong airspace before repeating the fly-by over the harbour. (AP)
