FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Talks over a 9-billion euro German government bailout of Lufthansa have hit a snag and will continue over the weekend, a German newspaper reported on Friday.
The issue involves a demand from the government that Lufthansa accept delivery of all planes it has ordered from Airbus , putting a significant financial burden on the troubled airline group, Handelsblatt reported, citing unnamed sources.
The planes would cost the ailing carrier more than 5 billion euros ($5.5 billion) in the coming three to four years, which Handelsblatt said would make the airline's recovery practically impossible.

The Navy's definition of UAPs includes unidentified objects that are likely easily explained – such as drones – as well as more mysterious phenomena that have stumped many observers and experts.
