I meant to comment on this a couple of days ago. Reportedly Airbus
invested $20 - $25 billion developing the A380.
They have built approximately 222 of the aircraft which reportedly
sell for $445 million each.
Basic math aside, I wonder if they broke even on this plane? I have
no idea what kind of margin exists on aircraft such as these.
According to this page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Airbus_A380_orders_and_deliveries
There are 117 aircraft on order, yet to be built.
