Dear luchtzak-readers,
I myself could not believe this news, and had to re-read it several times until I could finally believe I was reading it for real...
According to www.crash-aerien.com, Boeing bought the Airbus Consortium for about 1800 billion dollars, payment spread over several years.
This transaction was kept top-secret until today, when both CEO-staff of Boeing and Airbus signed for the last agreements.
Most of the agreements were made in private-planes over the Atlantic specially introduced in this occasion.
It is unknown if this is good news for the staff working for Airbus, or for the aviation generally speaking: competition created improvements, and from a operator s point of view, a large choice of aircraft all having their specific specificities. From another point of view it might be interesting as concepts might be exchanged between the two Greats from a research point of view, improving future types until perfection.
It is also unknown weither projects such as the A380 or A350 will subsist this union or rather be literally scrapped.

don't think Airbus or Boeing would have made that many spelling mistakes anyway
