Super Jumbo jet lands, sinks Singapore


An Airbus A380 jet landed in Singapore yesterday, with enormous fanfare, completing the company's first delivery of the plane that has been plagued by numerous delays. Shortly after the giant jet landed at the airport of this tiny Asian nation the island began to sink into the sea. After about forty-five minutes the entire island was submerged under four to five feet of water. "We may have misjudged the weight of the plane," said Jaque Gorrier, an Airbus Jet Weight Specialist.
