A380 delayed...again

:(

Aviation Week published an article today that the delay for A380 is definite. There will be layoffs, and budget cuts, and the first delivery won't happen until the second half of 2007.

You can read about it here and here.

*sigh* Sadness is the Bing.

Looks like the A380 isn't coming over to LAX (or the United States) anytime soon. I guess I won't see my first A380 until next year when either:

1.) I take my mother to Toulouse for her graduation present, or
2.) I manage to bum a ride with the avionics people at NG to the Paris Air Show 2007.

Here's hoping.
