Does anyone have any further details about the bloody altercation at the A-380 (s/n 001, reg F-WWOW, and WOW it WAS!) static-display between two ground-guys on the last trade day (Friday) at Farnborough?

Apparently, about an hour before the airshow started, one rampie wanted to start a GPU, and the other started throwing his toys around, insisting none was needed. In the end, one of them boxed the other, with the receiver being led into the small Airbus shed adjacent to the 380, with blood streaming from his head.

Facts preferred - not idle speculation or smart-arse comments, please, or this will likely be sent to Jet Blast - or deleted.

Any further details?
