Exactly...lot of sour grapes -- Boeing are struggling at the moment and the orderbook for the A380 is full!!
Not exactly. Airbus has orders for 129 A-380's but needs closer to 800 to "break even". Boeing has about the same number of orders for the 7E7 and has a larger potential market than the A-380 which is limited to about 50 airports worldwide. Time will tell.
