“I think in the end, the A380 will be a success because now that Airbus has overcome its biggest problem—the wiring system..”

- Yes, I remember all the snickering here at FR when these problems delayed the A-380 delivery schedule. However, I read the other day that Boeing has also experienced unexpected delays with the Dreamliner completion schedule. Something about subcontractors unable to meet delivery deadlines.

- Personally, I’m convinced both the A-380 and the Dreamliner will be successful in the end. A lot of aeoroplanes have faced huge intitial difficulties, that’s nothing new.

What we should do on both sides of the Atlantic is to continue pushing the limits.
