Hmmm Boeing wins contracts which in turn might be a good for manufacturers of bionic exoskeletons. I know one EKSO if they can get their debt under control it will become a profitable stock. Well, too be honest it is for me right now its kinda bullish.

I always feel the air conditioning is substandard when I fly on an Airbus. Like somebody needs to buy a few cans of "Freon" and charge that sucker.

From what I understand it's the maintenance and the fuel cost that makes A 380 so expensive for the owner, and it was therefore some airliner had cut down on their order.

My point:

It's not so much the size of a civil plane, but more a question of:

Material
maintenance cost
Fuel cost.

What future plane should have is

Material that is way easier and way strong than todays correspondence
and furthermore is easy and cheap to maintenance

Fuel well the engine they have today are, what I understand, made effective as possible
So perhaps they should look into alternativ fuel who may be cheaper and more green to the environment

But what do I know about all this.
