More on the new monstrosity from
Airbus. Japan's two biggest airlines have turned it down.
"The A380 programme can't be judged a success without sales to Japanese airlines. It's still possible Airbus could make a return on the A380 without them, but it makes it extremely difficult."
It sure would break my heart to see a State-supported socialist collaboration like Airbus have to eat the $12 Billion development cost of this behemoth.
