Jarg, Because we like American companies to be successful as it translates into more jobs and more money for Americans! And who would be "we"? This is the Internet, not the USAnet. Mercuns tend to forget they're not the planet's only technically competent inhabitants. More to the point: A large portion of the A380 (40 percent, IIRC) will be built in the US. It will ? Where did you hear that ? News to me. You ever heard of this new-fangled thing called globalizaton? It's here, man. It also involves many 'first world' nation jobs being outsourced to mainly asian countries. I see trouble looming as the asian countries get the expertise and no longer require *us* ! I speak from some experience of the situation. Graham |

Hmm, I looked for the article I read that number in, but can't find it. Will try to call Airbus later today to verify. But if you consider the amount of avionics and standard aviation equipment going in, it makes sense. I see trouble looming as the asian countries get the expertise and no longer require *us* ! Oh, I agree. Fully. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |
