Airbus to stop making A380 superjumboThe aircraft manufacturer will cease production of its giant jet after key buyer Emirates cuts orders. I bet they ask the UK government for money A darn shame although I think the 747 looks much better. Thankfully I have had the opportunity to fly on these on emirates and British_Airways.
