   Does Airbus suck? You be the judge.   
      
   Of the 97 aircraft Airbus sold through February, 89 of the 97 were for low   
   profit single aisle aircraft A320s. Airbus failed to sign any significant   
   contracts for A330s, A340s or A380s.   
      
   On the other side of the aisle, of the 119 aircraft that Boeing sold through   
   3/20, only 9 were for single aisles. The other 110 were for big profit   
   margin wide bodies.   
      
   Airbus is dead, just like Concorde, the channel tunnel and Galileo.
