Airbus raises price of A380 plane
Airbus has increased the sale price of its A380 superjumbo, whose problems have triggered a management crisis at parent company EADS.
Airbus said the price of all its models - including the A380 - rose two weeks ago in a standard annual increase.
The disclosure of a six-month delay to delivery of the A380 has thrown its Franco-German parent firm into turmoil.
The French government, a major investor in EADS, is under pressure to force management changes at the firm.
The A380 may be succeed. But, if it does not, it may kill the entire company.
