Today, Lufthansa announced that they are delaying their decision for an A380 order (they intend to sign for 15 firm orders). However, today, Airbus Industries announced that they are freezing the production rate of aircraft at the current state, but are continuing full development of the A380. They said, disregarding the crisis which results from the attacks in the U.S., that Airbus will have the right aircraft at the right time. Actually, that's what they hope.
