Market challenges facing Airbus' giant
Superlatives often surround any mention of the Airbus A380 passenger jet. France's President Jacques Chirac has described the giant plane as the "crowning achievement of a human and industrial adventure", while Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair has dubbed it "the most exciting new aircraft in the world". When the double-decker A380 takes off for its maiden flight - weather permitting - across the skies of France on Wednesday, it will certainly be the world's largest passenger airliner. But does Europe's flagship commercial jet, which is due to come into service next year, have what it takes to be a financial success? Airbus clearly thinks so. # posted by masquerader @ 11:49 ::
