AIRBUS BULLISH ON PROSPECT OF A380 ORDERS
AIRBUS will announce new orders for its $375m A380 superjumbo at the Paris Air Show, Louis Gallois, chief executive of parent company EADS, told a French radio station yesterday. The planemaker suffered embarrassment earlier this week when the A380 it had planned to fly at the show was damaged, but was replaced at the air show with a just-assembled A380 in Korean Airlines’ light blue livery.
