A6-EOP EK A380 Takes a Bow in the Hangar
Possibly trying to cycle the gear doors with without a nosegear pin? It's been done before on other aircraft.

That will polish right out.
Nothing to see here....move along.
Plus we just do things better at EK, so this would never happen to us...but if it did then we just put the responsible person in jail and deduct the damage from his salary. But it never happened.

Did it do any damage to the hangar floor? The floor is there for a long time... the A380 appears not to be so. (sadly; the 380 is a great passenger appeal aircraft even to Boeing drivers).
