Boeing Kicking Airbus's Tail

Why do I find this interesting?

Even with the reality of commercial flying as bleak as it is find the whole concept of plane design fascinating. Particularly the ongoing Airbus v. Boeing battle. For years now it looks as if Airbus was set for long-term dominance. But having placed a good portion of the 'eggs' in betting on the monstorous A-380, they gave Boeing an opening...and Beoing has exploited it with the introduction of the 787. Now even Airbus's planned competitor to the 787 is getting hammered.

Things look bleak for Airbus....but competition in this market is brutal and I wouldn't count them out.
