Yeah, and it's going to be six months late being delivered. That delay may be the first of many. I think Airbus has hit the shoals with this plane and Boeing will soon be announcing the enhanced 747 which may actually come to market ahead of the A-380.

My personal name for the A380 is "The Albatross."

I think it looks like world's largest albatross, bird of ill omen. May it be the proverbial albatross around Airbus' neck.
