It is standard practice… payments will be made for each day of delay in delivery,

This is our negotiation team in its infancy.

We see between 1,500 and 1,600 aircraft in that category. Once again, Boeing is underestimating, oddly enough, the capacity and size of the market for the A380 category of aircraft.

We are extremely happy Ernest Thomas is captured and going to jail where he belongs. Its been tense. There’s been a lot of time put in to his capture.

I could sell another 30 A380s between now and 2010 if we had the production capacity.

You’ll walk in and you’ll see an atrium, a two-story atrium, … You’ll have piano bars, coffee bars, lounges.

We’ll end the year 50-50.

Boeing has sold over 1,100-1,200 747s, so I think it’s rather silly to say the market for this aircraft is only about 300.

The growth markets of the world are China and India.

We will be moving rather rapidly above 200.

We believe it will be a softer market this year, … I would say 350 to 400 orders sounds about right.

It is not an enormous amount of money considering how much the aircraft is worth.

We could get close this year

Asia is certainly the strongest place right now. Both manufacturers have good products and are putting their best foot forward.

We have now got about 500 hours of flying time in all the test aircraft, … precautionary measure.

The trend line would be around 800-850.

There was a price war in 1995 [but] value is what really wins out.

Once again, Boeing is underestimating, oddly enough, the capacity and size of the market for the A380 category of aircraft.

We are in discussion with the Chinese on 30 to 50 aircraft,

Asia will still be very strong.

I’m not worried about their cabin size or their economics. The one thing they have is they can deliver a 787 about three years ahead of me.

In India, we are putting our act together. We want to have an engineering centre and service centre there.

to be a record year in terms of orders.

I think we’d be right around that level.
