A380 Delays
There have been some more A380 delays. This time mainly in Toulouse in the Final Assembly line with MSN041 (Lufthansa) and MSN030 (Emirates) and it looks like there could be more delays with other MSNs.

I am personally not a big fan of the A380, but I must say the tail looks nice...
Finally LH will receive them and I am sure it will be successful.
