Air bus already said they ok with that .
Fatbus, just curious but where did you get that Airbus is ready to shutdown the A380 line? Because everything I've been seeing is just the opposite - sort of "we just need to keep the line alive until the market recovers" sort of thing...

Keep in mind another thing, if Airbus shutters the A380 line, it'll be a several billion dollar hit to the European governments who provided 'launch aid' - and be a big re-enforcement to the USA/Boeing claim that launch aid is an unfair subsidy and distorts the marketplace.
(don't shoot the messenger here, just stating what I see from my knothole).
