Well, Bugger.
Looks like the A380 visit to Dulles won't be much of an event (for the general public) after all:
The aircraft is expected to arrive at Dulles some time after 9 p.m. on Sunday, March 25 and depart some time after 9 p.m. on Monday, March 26. The organizers of this event have not made arrangements for the general public to view the aircraft, its takeoffs or landings. Public areas of the airport do not offer a good view of the A380 when it is parked on the airfield.
The Dulles website has now updated this information; there will now be a 'demo flight' between 11 and 1 pm on Monday. But their website still seems bent on discouraging 'the public' from going to view anything at all: "views will be limited etc etc." Some public relations tour eh? This must be a really insiders-only event.
