AIRBUS A380 re-design issues

[Guest Glenn]

Received in an email today...

 

There's been much in the news of late regard the troubled Airbus arising from the delayed delivery of its new fleet of A380 super jumbos. Qantas will not get its first super jumbo until late next year, more than a year after the original due date in Australia.

 

With Airbus delaying the A380 so long we are short of planned capacity big time and we are trying to get anything we can. Yes, we are still getting the A380 but with some major modifications. It won't be as large a plane as previously planned but at least we're promised delivery by Christmas .... next year.

 

The social club has this exclusive photo of the A3.

Gee the pilots would have to use a bit of down trim.

It will never be able to compete against its Russian cousin the TU-1.5B.
