When it entered service, the #A380 earned the title of the world’s largest airliner – and from the start, passengers LOVED it. But, Airbus lost money with every one of the 251 A380s they sold… and they stopped making them BEFORE #Boeing stopped making the 747, the type that the A380 should have replaced.

HOW did #Airbus get so wrong-footed with the A380, and… did Boeing somehow… “trick” them, or push them to make a really expensive mistake?

Stay tuned.
