Probably not news for those in the aviation industry, but I recently had dinner with a friend of a friend at Airbus who told me that the A350 XWB (the ultra-wide body big twin Boeing 777/787 competitor) is severely delayed. Why? Well, all the engineers on the A400M were taken off the project to work on the delayed A380, and then the engineers on the A350 XWB were taken off their project and put to work on the A400M. So right now everyone is scrambling to get the A400M in the air and the A350 XWB is not exactly at the top of their priorities right now.
The thing you learn over a dinner table.
