Lou: does Airbus use metal or a graphite sort of composite for these A-380 structures? I had read a few days ago in a New York newspaper that the 380 program is about $2 (US) billion over budget.

Maybe the costs for developing the 7E7 competitior, the A-350 or whatever, will not help the situation, or vice versa?
