The distance from the tip of the 747 wing to ground is 6.8m / 22.31 ft
No Airbus is not trying to make an plane bigger that the A380 but Boeing is. search blended wing on Google.
3042 m
the airbus has a wing span of 99.8 metres ! huge! it s longer than the airbus itself! wow
A mixture of high grade Aluminum and 20% composite materials
The A 380 approaches ground at 170 mph.
same as jumbo or delta.
It is 9,020 feet. That is a long way.

wingspan is defined as the distance from wing tip to wing tip
The wings of any aircraft flex and bend all the time. They are supporting a lot of weight. -Next time you are in one, note where the wing tips are while on ground and later see them flex up when in flight.
Winglets have typically been added to existing wing designs to increase the total lift and reduce the vertices created by the wing tip. Airports expressed a desire for wingspans not to exceed 80m as this would cause major problems with gate and taxiway designs. The Airbus A380 has a wingspan of 79.65m, so adding winglets would not have been an option and the wing was also designed from scratch to reduce the aerodynamic need. To reduce the wing tip vortices, the A380 wing has 'wing tip fences', small vertical wings that extend above and below the wing tip.
