Airbus A380. What a wow of an aircraft!
Special visitor to this year’s EAA Airventure, or ‘Oshkosh’ to be more familiar.
AOPA have produced a very nice video covering the arrival of the Airbus A380 to Oshkosh.
Pretty sure that the link is a open-access one so Click here to watch. Any problems seeing it, please comment.

It seems to connect ok and I can tell there’s a lot of traffic – but after about 5 mins. still no clip. I expect it’s for AOPA members only.

I know this seems obvious but the video clip is not self-launching as per a YouTube clip. Assume you did click the play button?

Alas there was no play button for me to click.

Getting someone else to check. The number of views of the Post would suggest that it should work.
Do you see anything approaching a video screen?

Not really. I get the AOPA ONLINE screen and in the middle of the screen
connecting….
and that’s it!

Hi Fred,
Asked two of my friends to check the link out and both report that they can access the AOPA link and play the video – and they are not AOPA Members. Guess that makes it more likely to be something your end. Do you want me to email you the link?

And notice the way those wings flex….my heart was soaring!
