Has anyone heard about the Airbus A380 having structural failure allready?
Haa haaaaaaaaaaa! Discounts? Man, there goes safety!Ok what happens is that an aircraft company will get some investors behind them (banks, private, their own cash) and they will approach an aircraft company and discuss options of the aircraft and the model. Then the aircraft company will bring up a price and yes they can get price breaks if they decide to order more aircraft over the period of few years. But if an aircraft company is desperate for customers they may offer incentives. An agreement usually lasts for years between the aircraft company and the customer
