Two days after Qantas Airways flew the first Airbus A380 into Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport service, we now have two of the massive A380s in regular service here.

Emirates Airline Flight 222 arrived around 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. The airplane was just as big, but the crowd of media was smaller.

Workers at a site just south of Terminal D watch as the A380 lumbers by.
