Air Bus Problems
As widely expected by the aerospace industry, Airbus is having a few
problems with the new A-380.  It is grossly under powered or over weight!  Airbus Industries is working with the engine manufacturers to see if it is possible to up the thrust rating enough to overcome the long takeoff rolls and the degraded engine out performance.  In the meantime, they have come up with a temporary fix so as not to slow down production.  I'll let you know when the permanent fix is approved. The temporary fix is very impressive, and may be retrofitted to the A-300/310/318/319/320/321 as applicable.
