I've alway wondered if Boeing maneuvered Airbus into committing to the A380 project before moving on to what has become the 787 , the enhanced 777 and now the 747-8.

Kind of makes you wonder!

Cashflow has got to be a major problem for the folks at Airbus, even more so recently, as I read on FR a report that now Air France is expecting a one year delay on their 380's.

Let them eat cake! Cashflow? The EU will just become more socialist and there will be more handouts to Airbus.
