“We screwed up!” These were the words of Airbus CEO Thomas Enders at the Singapore Airshow this weekend, as the entire European fleet of A380′s is downed to check for cracks in their wings. Aeroplane manufacturer FAIL.
I hate flying. I can’t explain it, but I have a terrible irrational fear of being in a plane. I just can’t get my head around that much metal not falling out of the sky. And now my fears are made worse – Airbus has found cracks in the wings of the A380 – but says it’s still safe to fly.
