BERLIN (AP) — Financially troubled European airplane manufacturer Airbus has stopped work on the freight version of its new A380 superjumbo so it can focus more on the troubled passenger version of the aircraft, a spokesman for its parent company said Thursday.
“The work on the freight version of the A380 has just been temporarily cut off ... so that all capacities can be directed at the A380 passenger version,” said Michael Hauger, spokesman for the European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co., in a telephone call from Munich.
