Default Interesting speed comparison A345 vs A380
Just watching outbound traffic and noticed the Etihad A345 @ FL340 416kts and behind it the Singapore A380 @ FL350 doing 416kts so there doesn't appear to be much difference in speed at that stage of the journey. However earlier in the climb process the A380 was significantly faster than the A345 and did appear visually to gain ground on the A345 during the climbout phase.
