Airbus: lack of priority for safety issues

That certainly seems to be a rational conclusion given that the latest evidence, link below, says that it took them over a decade to come up with a solution for what seems to this layman to be a major safety issue of which they had been clearly informed .

Apparently that is the view too of a witness from a British helicopter operating company who stated that the attitude of Airbus appeared to be:

, " ...[Y]ou use your design department rather than us using ours to come up with a solution...."
