...Paris. The first involved British, French and West German plans to build the subsonic, short-range Airbus, which would carry 250 passengers and go into service by 1972. By agreement of the three governments, Britain was to build the craft's engine. Trouble is, the envisioned Rolls-Royce model is still on the drawing boards, while the U.S.'s Pratt & Whitney already has a suitable engine in the test stage.
