Specific to Stuart's question, the answer is still the same - http://www.enginealliance.com/gpspec.htmlAs to which engines were on this A380, I have no idea.  Although, it appears the options are the GE and P&W Alliance GP7200 and the Rolls Royce Trent 900. Other than that, I'm not following this very closely.

That airplane is uncertifiable today (at least with the seats back there) as part 25 has new rotor burst zone requirements. Makes you wonder how the Bombardier C-1000 is going to be certified. Maybe it is just the galley back there. Those galley hags are expendable.
