The article discusses the Airbus A380, the largest passenger airliner ever built. The 555-passenger aircraft has suffered a series of setbacks due to wiring problems. Co-chief commercial officer John Leahy acknowledges that Airbus is liable for millions of dollars in penalties due to the delay of deliveries from 2007 to 2010. Airbus is losing business to chief competitor Boeing Company over the delays in production.
