I still do not believe that the A380 are simply stored in DWC and no work being done on them.

If an aircraft is not flown for some time then it must be formally put into a storage program if they rotate them then the avoid having to put the aircraft into the storage program.

Cleaning them in the middle of the desert? They will get dirty the next day.
