In La Vanguardia Readers’ Photos we can see this curious image of the titanic A380 entering Gavà beach, in Baix Llobregat, with the seagull crossing as if it were at its height to accompany it on the flight.
This passenger plane is, to date, the largest in the world. It is the device with the highest passenger capacity that operates regularly in El Prat.
It is the first jet aircraft with two decks along its entire fuselage, unlike the Boeing 747, in which, although it also has two, the upper deck covers only the front part of the fuselage.
This aircraft has a maximum capacity of 853 passengers in a hypothetical high-density economy class configuration.
Spotting is the observation and recording of aircraft. It is a practice so popular among photography lovers that they are called spotters. And, the El Prat de Llobregat airport and its surroundings, like Gavà beach, are one of the best in the world for photographing airplanes.
