@doug132639 how do you mean? Boeing's Jumbo already are capable of being true freighters. If Airbus could convert there jumbo's in to full freighters (higher decks with full carry capacity) They would be a very good addition to the cargo only lines.

@cheekymescalito3249 '' Also, loading passenger planes through passenger doors is normal in 2020, it's almost industry standard.'' I am now imagining crew trying to shove a entire plane through the passenger door of a other plain. It might be a bit to much.

@andyowens5494 no i mean that the middle floor would be usable. make it strong enough to also be able to hold cargo. similar as they can do in the cargo space below.

@peterebel7899 did you actually read what i said. I never said that they are able. but if they could do that would have been interesting. if money is not the issue it is still possible but you will have to build a A380 based plain with the intend to make it a freighter. They could replace the frame of the aircraft in such a way that the real strength would be in both the hull and the middle floor. in bot the ground and middle flour could carry cargo. or even just the hull with out a middle floor. would it be possible yes. you can engineer it until it does work on a aircraft. is it cheap? no.

@andyowens5494 yes now it is not likely. if they looked in to it at the beginning of the A380 program it might have been interesting.
