If the A380 was almost a failure, this would have been a greater failureā€¦

You could very well be right. We will never know.

Yeah, and it looks like a competitor of the A380, but this would never win anyway

Iā€™m going to be honest, I like this plane more than the A380. Not as good as the 747 IMO, but better than the A380.

Thatā€™s just my opinion.

MD planned this before Boeing bought them up so basically MD never got the chance to build it.

If they built this then I donā€™t think we would have the a380.

#16

Nope. I donā€™t think so either.

I have no idea. The MD-12 just looks ā€œsleekā€ and ā€œcoolā€ to me.

Hahahaha. Failure written all over it. Favorite Aviation joke: MD-12 Lol. Seriously though, that doesnā€™t look right.
