Airbus Accused of Gutless Models Hits Back at Boeing 787 Parts
Airbus SAS, a week after being accused by Boeing Co. (BA) of lacking the guts to develop an all-new airplane, hit back by ridiculing as inferior its arch-rival’s choice of parts on the first 787 Dreamliner shown to the world. (www.bloomberg.com) Plus d'info...
With the 350's and new 777's coming out and AB building the plant in Mobile, competition is heating up and it's apt to get nasty. This could just be a shot over the bow, a hint of things to come. It just had a little different ring to it than past snipes.
BOEING PRODUCES BETTER JETS - Like the 787?
Better or not. When Boeing bought MD back yonder, they were the only serious player in the market. Best I remember, Airbus was just an upstart at that time. Regardless of what you rate bad or good, they are a serious competitor now, just as Bombardier and Embraer are major players in the RJ market.
How's that profitless A380 doing? Airbus missed the mark on that venture.
