This final note to observe a long-overdue bit of corporate rebranding.

First, do you know what EADS stands for?

No? Even though you’ve probably flown on their planes.

The European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company makes Airbuses.

Executives have now apparently recognized the ungainlyness of that name and have renamed themselves simply: Airbus.
