AIRBUS has won an order from Malaysia Airways for six Airbus A380 with first deliveries in 2007. Malaysia, one of Airbus first customers in 1978, has yet to make an engine choice. The commitment from the airline, through its parent company PMB, brings the total A380 order book to 103 from 10 customers. The first flight of the A380 is now expected in early 2005 with deliveries to SIA in March 2006. Still with the A380, but at the production end, British company GKN has delivered the first production standard composite assembly for the aircraft”s wing, a six foot long rib weighing just 2kg.
