"It is ironic to see how Boeing, which had so much momentum, now faces these major 787 program challenges, announced just days before the first A380 delivers," Steven Udvar-Hazy, chairman of American International Group Inc.'s International Lease Finance Corp., wrote in an email. "The pendulum keeps swinging in all directions."
