“Airbus parent company EADS has announced a new break-even point for its troubled A380 programme - 420 aircraft as opposed to the previous 270, the BBC reports. Current orders for the A380 stand at 159”

And 420 is just break-even? How does a company stay profitable, being that far behind? Breaking even is not going to keep shareholders happy, and it's not going to create the resources needed to fund other projects.
