Hi,
is there special reason for which you link the A380 rating with the B747 rating.
Concerning the technical aspects, I would assume it is much closer to the A330/A340. In case it needs to be a Stage 5 airplane, why Boeing and not the A350 rating? I guess, flying a Boeing Jumbo is not even close to flying an Airbus system.
Thanks
Christian

Before I got on staff years ago I recall asking someone that same question. When I was overseeing Ops, I thought about revising the stage ratings but didn’t. It’s still on my mind even as President. Perhaps Ops can chime in.
