#11 Interesting rumor from thebusinessonline: The truth that the A350 was a dead duck finally hit home in Toulouse. The design was torn up earlier this year, and work started on an all-new plane, codenamed A370. Now, the board of EADS, which met on Friday, has “suspended” the launch of this aircraft, with a likely development cost of E8bn, twice that anticipated earlier. |

#4 Second choice was "Airbus Orders Crash". I'm surprised they didn't settle on Descent of Airbus Orders Begins. Please fasten your seatbelt and return your tray table to the upright and locked position." |

#3 The first choice was, "Airbus sucks so bad, aircraft orders deflate." |

#2 The first choice was "sharp plunge" but was rejected, oddly enough. |

#1 Odd choice of words for this headline, don't ya think? I mean, an Airbus falls out of the sky and then the word 'fall' appears in an Airbus article. Almost like it was chosen or something... |
