great, another bloody safety issue with airbus. cracks in wings? that's just what we need after the whole 737 max mess. sort it out ffs.

Taylor Wright2026-06-24T05:31:29.000Z

we just booked a flight on an a380 for next month... should i be worried? 😬

well boeing's problems were software, this is structural cracks. both bad if you ask me.

RNZ2026-06-24T05:44:29.000Z

omg i knew it, those planes are too big, just asking for trouble. stick to boeing i say.

Ella Thompson2026-06-24T06:22:29.000Z

nah boeing is worse mate, 737 max killed people. airbus will fix it.

Tom Harris2026-06-24T06:22:29.000Z

mate, spare parts for these beasts take forever. they better have em ready.

ur probably right but still... not a great look for airbus.

Reese Morgan2026-06-24T07:05:29.000Z

it's just a precaution, they gotta check em all. happens. not as bad as the media makes out.

Sam North2026-06-24T06:17:29.000Z

wing spar cracks are serious but it's just a few planes. they'll sort it, no need to panic. happens all the time in maintenance.

wait so these are the double decker ones? i always thought they looked cool but now yikes... glad i can't afford to fly anyway lol

Alex Rivera2026-06-24T06:44:29.000Z
