Anyhow, A380 tests in or from TLS have occasionally happened on Sundays for years.

Is the cabin pulling the engines or the engines pushing the cabin? What a great shot!!

Is the cabin pulling the engines or the engines pushing the cabin? What a great shot!! I was on a similar line of thought when I saw that picture too. It is a great shot indeed. Goes to show how the engine pylons, though small in size, have to be really really strong to do their job of holding the 7-8 tonne engines to the wing, pulling the 250+ tonne fuselage through the air and to do them at different angles. Amazing piece of engineering.
