EM according to Airbus there orders of the super jumbo A380 production haven't past the almighty 747B at all now there cutting back on the big tub. Where the Queen of the skies the Boeing 747B is still in front by miles

Not sure I can see the A380 as a freighter.
Plenty of volume and likely low prices for well maintained A380s. Likely sellers are Singapore and of course Emirates as their A380s get to be 10 years old (like soon)
Volume as in cubic meters of freight space, not volume of airframes. Apologies.
Oh, I can and as troop transporters too!
