The A380 arrival will mark the grand re-opening of FLU airport. ;)

Are the noodle bar and baccarat table on the upper or lower deck?
I hear the A380s inboard-only thrust reversers were designed specifically for use on FLU's narrow runways.
Since we've created a monster that ended up with its own thread, maybe we can also get the intersection of Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue designated as a Navaid.
