AIRBUS has again had to defend its A380 delivery timings after the head of partner BAe Systems warned of more delays. Mike Turner issued the warning just a week after BAe agreed to sell its 20% stake in the aircraft business. However, majority owner EADS denied the claims, saying it was still carrying out an internal audit into the delays. The ongoing row over deliveries has already claimed the jobs of a number of senior executives. EADS, which is buying BAE's 20% stake to give it full control of Airbus, said no-one could know whether the A380 would face further hurdles.
