This week the A380 was officially certified. I find it interesting that the City of Toulouse has billboards congratulating Airbus on the big event. I believe the sign reads: "GOOD FOR SERVICE. BRAVO AND THANK YOU AGAIN". Maybe it's because Airbus is part government-owned, but I don't think Seattle will do similar things when the 787 flies. Then again, I didn't ask anyone if there were banners around Seattle celebrating Starbucks egg-nog lattes (it only happens once a year). Oh well, when you're 2 years late delivering this mammoth jet, I guess you have to celebrate whenever you can.
