Remarks: QANTAS' new huge A380 tail (VH-OQA) shown against John Travolta's smaller 707 tail (notice the size comparison relative to the two people at the bottom of the image) .

Remarks: A special thanks to the AAFB folks for permitting this photo during summer of 2006. This is typically the aircraft used by the Secretary of State for various international political visits. Notice how clean the aircraft is (1200x800 pixels).
Remarks: Brand new QANTAS A380 leaving LAX for a short trip north to SFO with actors John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John on board.
