SQ has experienced it's first mishap with its A380 . Fortunately only minor and no fault of the aircraft , an aircraft tug had some kind of mech failure at SIN while pushing the A380 and the aircraft ran off the apron and ended up on the grass ... There was no apparant damage to the aircraft , however , the SQ221 to SYD was operated by a replacement 747 this morning .

Appears the A380 is back in service today:

9V-SKA SQ0221 12/01/2008 06:54 Singapore Airlines A380-841 Singapore-Sydney

A relatively minor incident with the usual media hype.
