potential

With Airbus 380, the potential is limitless. For ages, the aviation industry's creativity has been capped by lack of space. With advances in technology and dedication of Airbus, we now have the most spacious commercial aircraft in the history of mankind and airlines are able to offer significant services that will set them apart from each other rather than trivial services such as the food and the brand of wine.

Are there any mistakes.
Thanks.

Thanks, MM. I must admit I don't know when to use 'in history' or 'in the history of mankind". Any advice?

The history of mankind is a long, long time-- about a quarter of a million years. Use 'history of mankind' when you are considering that period, when you are considering long, slow developments, as in:

The greatest invention In the history of mankind is beer.

It is also used jocularly or for exaggeration, as in:

the worst building in the history of manki
