An aviation "oops"

[440_Magnum]

Not the kind involving crunched metal, but a pretty big "oops" at any rate. And a funny one for those of us who don't care for Airbus:

I guess if you promise that a pig is going to fly, you'd better make the pig FLY!


On a more serious note- as little empathy as I have for Airbus, it really does seem like a problem when there are only TWO independent manufacturers of airliners in the western world.

I am glad for Boeing, I think the A-380 is an overkill. The 787 is more practical. Just my opinion of course!
