And America When
the subsidies End
A310 to A380 From the Airbus

Unfair European Union Subsidies Ending will make
Harmonize the Global Market

Airbus recorded a net figure of 1,055 orders in 2005, beating Boeing's net order total of 1,002 by 53 aircraft. In gross terms, Boeing is also behind Airbus, with 1,029 against 1,111 aircraft. Airbus Total Deliveries 378, Gross Orders 1,111, Backlog 2,177. (8)

Airbus successed order 2005 again with proceeding unfair EU subsidies, on the end, it will continue to hurting the global market.

The world recognized that EU subsidies in question include those relating to the entire family of Airbus products (A300 through the A380) A300/A310: $3.83 billion, A320: $2.03 billion, A330/A340:$4.77 billion,A330-200:$58 million, A340-500 / A340-600:$627 million, A380: $3.73 billion.(3)

In addition, US Marshall Plan Funds to EU Subsidize on A350. (1) (2)

After Airbus Industrie was formed in 1970, Boeing's market share (70% in the early 1970s) began to decline. In the mid-1970s, Boeing launched long-range planes (the 757 and the 767). (15).

The world is watching and WTO is still in process to ending unfair subsidies (9)

EU can not blamming the US Dominating Defense Contract by Boeing when there was another US company also there are many subcontractors (i.e., General Dynamics Corp., United Defense Industries Corp., Lockheed Martin Corp., Raytheon Co., Northrop Grumman Corp., BAE Systems PLC, Textron Inc. and Computer Science Corp. are the major subcontractors).(10)

787 Dreamliner is the most advanced Global Team for the suppliers and partners around the world. France Dassault Company is one of the suppliers Systèmes Update to Digital Tools for 787 Global Team: Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software suite by Dassault Systèmes as members of the global 787 team.

Boeing has selected two engine types, the General Electric GENX and British Company, Rolls-Royce Trent 1000, for Boeing 787 Dreamliner, an airplane that will provide the world's airlines with exceptional efficiency and environmental performance. The General Electric and Rolls-Royce engines will enable the 787 to fly higher, faster, farther, cleaner, quieter and more efficiently than comparable airplanes," (12)

The 787 is super-efficient airplanes, More Frequency Choices, More Non-Stop, Point-to-Point Flights, Super Fuel Efficient, and A Great Cargo Space, and The Best Environmental Leadership that will provide passengers with a better flying experience, including an improved cabin environment with more room and more conveniences. The next major milestone for the 787 will be in 2007 when the first 787 enters production. Flight test will occur the same year, with certification, delivery and entry into service in 2008.

Yet, Airbus continues to proceed illegal EU subsidies for A310 to A380.
In addition, many travelers and people are concern about the environmental issue and the noise will create due to A380 is too big. Those issue can be unknown problem around the world. People are already starting to concern about those issues:Increase taxAirfied, terminal, and miscellaneous/Costs to operator. Brisbane airport Corporation General Manager even admit that Re-configure airport to accommodate A380 eg is an expensive option and the recovery of costs will be difficult. (13)

Mangan alleges that flaws in a microprocessor could cause the valves that maintain cabin pressure on the A380 to accidentally open during flight, allowing oxygen to leak out so rapidly that everyone aboard could lose consciousness within seconds.

Boxes of documents detailing his allegations clutter the living room, but Mangan can't show the material or talk about the case — at least in Austria.

To discuss his case with The Los Angeles Times, Mangan took a five-hour train ride to Munich, Germany, where the gag order doesn't apply. "I don't want to destroy TTTech," he said. "But I still get nightmares of people dying. I just can't let that happen." (14)

According to World News, triumet.net: May 18, 2005 when Airbus officials announced that they were applying for $1.7 billion in government support for their new plane, the A350, the U.S. said enough is enough: It announced that it was filing a lawsuit. And on May 31, the World Trade Organization began the largest litigation effort in its history. There are so many other reports showing that the Airbus Illegal export subsidies. (Search)

Per reference http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/democrac/57.htm shows that The United States offered up to $20 billion for relief, but only if the European nations could get together and draw up a rational plan on how they would use the aid. The Marshall Plan, it should be noted, benefited the American economy as well. The money would be used to buy goods from the United States, and they had to be shipped across the Atlantic on American merchant vessels. But it worked. By 1953 the United States had pumped in $13 billion, and Europe was standing on its feet again. Moreover, the Plan included West Germany, which was thus reintegrated into the European community. (The aid was all economic; it did not include military aid until after the Korean War.) (7)

Despite the years of scandal and battles over subsidies, new subsidy improprieties come up every year. The plans to support the a350 are especially suspect: “A midnight amendment to Germany’s 2005 budget showed Germany plans to help the a350 with $890 million in government funds that originated as part of the U.S. Marshall Plan” (Chicago Tribune, May 20). The Marshall Plan was created to rebuild Germany after World War ii; it’s unlikely the drafters of the plan intended to rebuild Germany at an altitude of several thousand feet. (1) (2)

According to The United States further notes that certain launch aid provided for the A340 and A380 appear to be illegal export subsidies in contravention of certain provisions of Article 3 of the SCM Agreement. The United States is further concerned that the measures appear to be causing adverse effects to US in a manner contrary to the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 of the SCM Agreement. The United States is also concerned that the measures appear to be inconsistent with Article XVI:1 of GATT 1994. Finally, the United States is concerned that the measures have caused and continue to cause nullification or impairment of benefits to the United States under GATT 1994 within the meaning of Article XXIII:1. (3)

The measures include: the provision of financing for design and development to Airbus companies (“launch aid”); the provision of grants and government-provided goods and services to develop, expand, and upgrade Airbus manufacturing sites for the development and production of the Airbus A380; the provision of loans on preferential terms; the assumption and forgiveness of debt resulting from launch and other large civil aircraft production and development financing; the provision of equity infusions and grants; the provision of research and development loans and grants in support of large civil aircraft development, directly for the benefit of Airbus, and any other measures involving a financial contribution to the Airbus companies. The subsidies in question include those relating to the entire family of Airbus products (A300 through the A380) (3)

The 1992 agreement was negotiated, Airbus accounted for only about 30 percent of the global market. It now represents more than 50 percent of this market. Clearly, the 1992 agreement has outlived its usefulness.

The United States is further concerned that the measures appear to be causing adverse effects to US in a manner contrary to the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 of the SCM Agreement. (3)

Boeing has already lost its dominance in the industry—one critical to the U.S. both economically and militarily. Now the WTO is positioned to deal a major blow to Boeing by the end of the year. But all of this is just a shadow of a much larger battle developing between the EU and the U.S. (3)
