Airbus Loses Altitude




Airbus is undoubtedly losing altitude while Boeing is gaining. In the past 18 months, for example, Boeing has been winning more new orders in the long-haul market. It is the success of Boeing's 787 Dreamliner that is forcing Airbus to move to an all-new design for its A350 passenger jet.


Meanwhile the 380 is requiring major overhauls at airports it will service. Read about it at the Financial Times.
