Or Kinderkrankheiten (children’s diseases, bugs), as the Germans like to say. You know how it is. Some customers have to moan no matter what. Just because a turbine or two stops working, an occasional cable melts down and paneling falls off here and there, those bitchy Bedouins down there in the Emirates are getting all hot and huffy about their brand new fleet of four Airbus A380 mega monster machines.

Some of these Emirate guys are so mad about what they see as a lack of European quality control that they are even rumored to be considering demanding their money back. The only problem with that is that nobody knows what they paid for these puppies in the first place being that money just bubbles up out of the sand down there anyway, so-to-speak, so like, who cares?

„Vier Großraumflugzeuge hat Emirates seit vergangenem Jahr im Einsatz, die seitdem immer wieder einmal Probleme machen.“
