Not just Virgin. Why there are only two European airlines there, is more of a question and interestingly enough very little American support.

The American civil aircraft industry is in such a mess at the moment with two of the biggest on the verge of bankrupcy it makes you realise that the 380 has not arrived at the most lucrative time.

In contrast just look at how the unbeleivably quickly developing nations are snapping them up. They also have the ability to build new facilities far easier that the west to accommodate them.

We are seeing evidence here of the shift in the power base of the global economy. Interesting stuff.
