Quite a contrast with the positively chilled out attitude of the Lufthansa CEO, who said last week that despite the delays to A380 deliveries, the airline was still considering ordering more of them, and that such problems were "to be expected" with projects of this nature...
SIA just want more compensation $$$$ methinks.
