[quote:GetToTheChoppa 9421332:MV8xNzYyNTE3XzI5MjQ5MjI4XzgxQ0FEQjcy] [quote:davID58:MV8xNzYyNTE3XzI5MjM4MzA2XzVGMUE0NUI1] Airbus will figure out a solution and have a fix on the assembly line and a retrofit on the ones flying. They have to, they have too much at stake in the 380 project. Besides, they said similar things when the 747 started flying and it also had some teething problems early on. The thing that bothers me about these big birds, is when the first A380 crashes. It's going to take a awful lot of people with it. [/quote] ^^^THIS^^^ The A380 wings are manufactured in the UK as far as I know. They'll find a solution. BTW, Boeing's Dreamliner gonna have carbon fiber wings - have fun! There are security related concerns. It exists little experience how the new aircraft material behaves at permanent everyday use. In addition, repair procedures of the so called composite structures aren't standardized and too little. Some technical issues are still open, such as finding damage to the material and how they are classified. [/quote]
