Should all Airbuses be grounded?

American Chronicle reports the accident record of Airbuses and a possible cause; Composites.
"Is Composite Structural Design and Manufacturing Technology Sufficiently Mature To Be Used in Critical Structures on Passenger Aircraft?"


As someone who has a couple of Airbus flights booked for later this summer, I wish I had not read this article. I hate little Airbuses; they have dreadful leg-room and an oppressive atmosphere that is even worse than similar sized Boeing planes.
