Going to be one very sad headline when that inevitable day comes.

"Adjoining beds can even be brought together to create a double."

But for unspecified reasons, this can only happen above 5280 feet.

OK so some rich types have a string of bimbos ....... to quote a phrase I heard on CNN (no Guga I was watching it on cable and am not not in the USA) the rich like to have their 'eye candy" and do more than just eye them ....... thus the trips to exrotic destinations for SSS (salacious sex and sin)

I'd purchase the suite (if I had money to burn) because getting a good night's rest on an airplane is becoming harder with each new plane to come out.

-------------------------------------------------

Your implication that sex is sin , Is as we say in the US
"out in left field"..... dude.

Sex is natural , its pleasurable , its healthy, its relaxing, its keeps you fit.

Its the cause of our being.

Sin whatever that is, has nothing to do with sex...dude

Great news. I have always flown in Business Class to Singapore but this cabin suite is too interesting to miss out. Must try if I were in Sydney to fly out.

It is so expensive I couldn't give a flying f*** about the double beds!!!

Suck, is that nautical or land-based feet? Is there such a thing as arial feet? I'm ruining your joke, aren't I?

I'm away for my breakfast. I could murder a bowl of cornflakes. Does that make me a cereal killer?? :))

Seems to me this private cabin is a very real source of security issues in the sky - no, I don't mean shagging someone else's partner. I mean - what a wonderful place to mobilize and organize your takover of the aircraft, or its destruction.

As a regular user of cattle class, it looks much the same as any other plane, just more seats!
No doubt there will be a surge of new members in the mile high club or you could even have a "mile high orgy"!

In my opinion, there's more to this story than meets the eye, Darling and Brown should take note:

1) Singapore's population in 1961 - 1.6 million

2) Singapore's population in 2007 - 4.5 million

3) Singapore's average annual economic growth over 40 year period is 6%.

4) Around 20% of the population are immigrants attracted to the country by the booming economy.

5) Jack McConnell's 'Foreign Talent Initiative' was based on a very similar scheme already in place in Singapore (Jack forgot to work on the economy).

6) The top four 'sovereign funds' in the world belong to governments from nations smaller than Scotlands. Coming in at No. 4 is the Government Investment Corporation (GIC) of Singapore with around +USD 200 billion to invest. I think Norway's is No.2.

7) Singapore government, unlike Scotland, does not need to subsidise airlines to fly there.

The purchase of this aircraft by Singapore Airlines is typical of the Singapore governments ambition and vision shown over the last 40 years - its the 'can do' spirit.

All the above has been achieved with no oil and gas revenues and Singapore was much poorer than Scotland in 1961.

Whether this aircraft is successful or not doesn't change the fact that our politicians in Scotland are struggling to get the Forth Road Bridge sorted out and a train link to Edinburgh airport seems to be too ambitious!

I can't get over it...

First you have to endure, humiliating security checks, then are kept waiting for hours in a noisy airport lounge with expensive food and drink and no smoking area. You finally get on board this luxury jet, spend a few hours on it and then get off an Singapore to eventually find that your baggage has been sent to India after waiting at the carousel for an hour.

Nah! Give me a boat and a car any day...

Do you mean airplanes in general or just the A380?

If you mean the former look up aerodynamics in Wikipedia and if not what comes up WILL come down and not just in a controlled descent but an horrific crash.

You have a VERY valid point. Hope it never comes to pass.
