NEWS: A380 Customers tell LAX to get Crackin'

LAX lags in accommodating the A380 Los Angeles International airport, LAX to you and me, is being leaned on to pick up the pace on modifications needed to accomodate the massive A380. Both Singapore Airlines and Virgin Atlantic are telling LAX to get things moving or they may look to other airports. The improvements needed are major and local efforts aimed at slowing or even halting growth at LAX have turned out to be more formidable than anticipated. In the end LAX hopes to handle around 2 dozen A380's a day in 2010...approximately 15000 passengers...a DAY.
