From the Paper:

"The French company states that they first came to being in order to challenge the Americans' supremacy on the international aircraft market. The company was formed in 1970 as the result of a consortium between France's Aerospatiale and Dutch Airbus. The company then merged with Spain's CASA and British Aerospace. In 2001, all four components unified under a single company, based in Toulouse, France (headquarters were set in 1974). In 2004, the aircraft company managed to overthrow their main competitor, American Boeing, by registering more sales and securing more orders. Today, they are the sole possessor of the largest airplane on the globe, the Airbus A380, which can transport up to 800 travellers at one flight."
