    This is such a joke, considering that airbus and EADS is wholly subsidized by the EU. It's the pot calling the kettle black. Not only that, if the merger with EADS and BAE systems go through...LOL. Europeans are just mad that even with all the government assistance...airbus hasn't managed to outcompete boeing.

    Read the history of the complaint war before commenting. US fired away with the complaints first. Boeing is gov't subsidized via grants and tax breaks, just FYI.
    We all like rooting for our own team but make an attempt to be objective, ET already has too many childish debates like this.

    "World Trade Organization litigation

    On 31 May 2005 the United States filed a case against the European Union for providing allegedly illegal subsidies to Airbus. Twenty-four hours later the European Union filed a complaint against the United States protesting support for Boeing."
