Question ??

Why, Bemused ?

What's gonna happen to you ?!!



As a European I'd be actually quite proud to see Airbus get the order, and I like to see healthy competition.

As a passenger I couldn't give two hoots about what equipment I'm travelling on. Just get me there in one piece and on time. Oh and don't charge me too much either.

But please don't anyone get too sanctimonious about subsidies and the like, because regardless of how it is buried or disguised, both the US and the EU continue to exercise all kinds of backstabbing nefarious policies - not limited by any means to aviation.
