SIA also used the occasion to introduce the new UK general manager, Marvin Tan, for whom it is going to be a very busy year, doing the social rounds at Farnborough where the Airbus A380 is likely to steal the show, and later on, the actual introduction of the aircraft on the London ” Singapore route. He confirmed that the aircraft would be configured three class with 480 maximum passengers. Users of Heathrow T3 may well have seen that in fact the aircraft has already arrived. A massive model is now hanging from the ceiling in the departure lounge. Please see the ABTN web site.
