Airbus pushing ahead with A350 financing
Analysis
The A350 programme is expected to require investment of EUR10-12 billion. Approximately EUR3.5 billion of this will be provided by the governments of Germany, the UK, Spain and France, through reimbursable launch investment. Airbus stated that funding for the A350 programme has been unaffected by the recent WTO ruling, which did not cover the new aircraft.
