England - Farnborough - Airbus A380 and Etihad Boeing 777

An Airbus A380 is parked nose to tail with it's rival in the airline world, a Boeing 777 belonging to the Etihad Airways. They are both static exhibits at Britain's Farnborough Airshow and are on the ground before their afternoon flying displays delighting potential buyers of these jet aircraft, and the aviation-loving general public. These are the airplane giants and their bidding for airline contracts and orders is a fierce on-going fight for dominance in the world's skies. The teo planes are low in the picture to emphasize the blue skies above. Etihad's emblem seen on the tail is that of a falcon while the Airbus is a generic demonstrator that flies around the world on a continuous marketing tour.
