Fedex Express said it had cancelled its order for 10 Airbus A380-800F superjumbo because of delivery delays.

Instead it has ordered 15 Boeing 777 freighters - to be delivered between 2009 and 2011 - and has an option to take a further 15 aircraft.



Cancellation of 10 Airbus, a firm order for 15 Boeing with options on 15 additional is a net gain of 20 units for Boeing!
