An Emirates Airbus A380 aircraft. This is a reskin of Vulcan's orginal A380 model, Used with permsission. It operates on invisible track and will load passengers at a suitable landing area. The real aircraft has a top speed of 634 mph (1020 kph) and an all up weight of 276,800 kg. It can carry 525 to 853 passengers.
The aircraft has an automatically operating landing gear. This retracts at takeoff speed (280 kph) set in the script. It lowers at speeds below 280kph. The speeds for tilting and landing gear retraction on takeoff may be altered in the string table above - speeds are in kph.
It does not have an operating interior, but does have various exterior views based on an invisible interior, use the [ and ] keys from the interior view. The aircraft will load and unload passengers at suitable airports.
The aircraft has a number of animations that can be operated by keybpoard keys, or the Aircraft Action Trigger, kuid:76656:24050, when placed on track and set to the correct number:
- Wing flaps use the B key, or trigger setting 2

- it will issue smoke and sound from the tyres when landing, use trigger setting 4. See my wepages for further details.
Note the model engine specification is set up for operation in TC3 or later. Original settings for acceleration and deceleration suitable for TRS2006 will not allow the aircraft to accelerate in TC3 - the settings have been increased by a factor of 4. If you find the aircraft accelerates too fast in TRS2006, reduce these settings to one quarter of their value.
