The A-380 - Stay in Production or cancel?

May 7, 2010

Canceling the A 380 will invoke more costs not less. Even if the various Gov'ts would agree with layoffs, the severance pay and other benefits would outweigh the savings. Also most of the development costs are "sunk" they cannot be recovered at all. Future production costs must be reflected in the actual aircraft selling price. Also Airbus would suffer greatly in prestige should their "Queen" disappear, plus many customers would leave Airbus and go to Boeing.

Costs Are Sinking The Boating Industry

Ill economic winds batter boat industry | www.chron.com

High Fuel cost are keeping many boats tied to their slips or not being launched at all. Coupled with higher cost for storage, towing, moorage at destinations, and lower free income, the 2008 boating season will be very flat. New boat sales are at the lowest point in years and even used boats are flooding the market. Here in the North East we are seeing high numbers of people leaving boating for good.  At my marina - one of the largest in Ct. - we are seeing  a 20-25% vacancy rate. That is the worst in 20 years.
