Airbus Redundancies.
I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.
The UK will probably be hard hit for several reasons; firstly because BAE Systems have now sold their shares, theres no British at the highest levels of management to represent Airbus UK and secondly because (arguably misguidedly) it now looks as if future wing structures will be composite and not aluminium alloy, the expertise for this best exists in Germany and not in the UK :sad:
