If we are lucky it should fly right over. I saw it once with a contrail and it was stunning. They go around us both east and west most of the time. Got binoculars? FlightAware

How powerful do your binocs have to be to see a large airplane at FL380? :wink:

 

[ind224]

About an hour out. Just a FL380 fly over not a landing. I use Celestron SkyMaster Giant 15x70's.

I can see it right now NE from Broad Ripple.

I was looking for it and never saw it here on the Northwest side near 79Th and Michigan Road.

What's so special about it?

What's so special about it?

Claimed to be the world's largest passenger airliner. It has a double-deck fuselage in which the upper deck runs the entire length. It has 49% more floor space than a Boeing 747-200 and can carry over 800 passengers depending on the cabin configuration.

The flight in question was a Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt, Germany, to Houston. For whatever reason, this one happened to go over Indianapolis en route.

I caught this shot of a Quantas A380 flying direct from Sydney Australia to Dallas Fort Worth International airport - flying directly over San Antonio, TX. What is unique about this flight is it is supposed to be the longest duration direct flight in the world.

Three contrails on a four engine plane !
