Yo Don!
Yes all true- but who were most of those orders from?
I didn't spread the above rumours re EKs deliveries- it appears it's back to "Flank speed and to hell with the ice-burgs"- hope that works out for us!!!
I've never said other than that the Whale will make money fo EK on the right routes- I'm still skeptical there are 90 Airframes worth of those, but we'll see.
I maintain it will NEVER show a profit for Airbus, and even the figures you quote mean they haven't sold nearly enough.
