Court action not rapid and not going well for Qatar

Apparently the London Court has denied Qatar's action to require Airbus to continue making the A321's on order. Qatar objected to Airbus connecting the A321 order with Qatar's refusal to take further deliveries of their A350 order. The A350 deliveries are in dispute because Qatar's regulator (the Board has some common personnel to Qatar Airways) ruled there are safety issues with the cracking paint. This is despite Airbus attempting to remedy with Qatar and then Qatar taking several more of their A350's out of service and also letting them all deteriorate further without repair or repaint and suing Airbus for massive amounts of damages. Let's see how that Court case goes for them.
