Airbus A380 in Arizona

You made a wrong statement (namely that all large Airbus parts are produced in France). Why don't you CITE that alleged statement of mine? Here it is: Someone posted: "Any idea what this could have been? I thought all the big parts of the 380 were being manufactured in Europe and Great Britain." And you said: "In France." Wrong. Now here are the facts: Another clever snip by Tchiowa? This was my ENTIRE POST: RF In France. RF An Airbus A380 had a test flight (with a crew of 78) that landed in RF Kowloon (Hong Kong) HKG yesterday. It was front page news RF here in Hong Kong. :=) I was at the 59th floor lounge of the Hong Kong Conrad having a little evening hors d'oeuvres when i responded to the post about Airbus A380 in Arizona. I merely recalled what I read. Fifteen minutes later, I saw a copy of the newspaper at the lounge, and I added, with actual quotes from the NEWS. RF It was front page headline "RUNWAY MONSTER World's biggest RF passenger jet lands at Chek Lap Kok" but page 3 news in Sunday RF Morning Post (South China publication). RF "The aircraft - the third unit to roll off the production line in RF Toulouse, France -- flew to Hong Kong on a stringent flight RF testing routing that will see five of the planes circle the world RF three times in 18 days before the A380's expected certification f RF or commercial use next month." That was when Borchert inserted his first piece of irrelevance, two hours after my quotes above: TB No. In Europe (Hamburg, Germany, for example). -- TB Thomas Borchert (EDDH) to which I responded: RF What was YOUR source. about Hamburg? RF It's unlikely to be in production in only one country. i know RF of THAT one. The newspaper also reported that the RF manufacturer is not expecting to "break even" until 420 RF of these GIANTS are completed. The 3 posts of mine (cited above) were posts #5, #6, and #8, with Thomas Borcerts post being #7, in the Google thread. The NOISE makers, including the well-known Tchiowa who had repeatedly made blunders in this group, came in much later. I had said I couldn't care LESS which country manufactured the parts, and even cited Iraq and Iran -- I was merely reporting what I READ in the newspaper that day, while I was at the city where the A380 landed, while the rest were speculating about its presence in Arizona. By now, 6 days later, even Tchiowa could find enough tidbits from his spare time away from soc.culture.thai to make some more noise by more creative snipping. :-) Get a LIFE, all of you. I have already come back from Hong Kong to the USA, had my first Thanksgiving dinner with family members today, 300 miles from home, and will be having a second after-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow, while I am browsing through some of this garbage in a hotel. :-) -- Reef Fish Bob. |
