Leahy: A350 demand exceeds supply

That’s what Airbus Salesman General John Leahy tells Flight International, anyway http://www.flightinternational.com/Articles/2005/10/11/202078/Airbus+fears+A350+demand+will+outstrip+supply+chain.html.

Key Quote: “Leahy said the ‘biggest problem’ he faces is ‘our ability to ramp up A350 production. If I could get more, I could sell more.’”

Sounds remarkably like what Boeing has been saying about the 787, doesn’t it?
