Airbus or Boeing?

I've flown on both. both were just fine. I chose Boeing strictly because they're an American company.

I know quite a few people who work there, Boeing all the way.

I would have absolutely no reason to fly Air China.
 
Both equally good I think......... although I would like to try the A380 on a long haul flgiht 🙂

Too many fly-by-wire crashes with Airbus!! China Air has lots of problems with flying into mountains for some reason, NO WAY I WOULD FLY THEM.
 
I'm sorry, but Airbus makes a more comfortable aircraft! Two new airplanes: Delta Boeing 777-200 vs. Lufthansa Airbus A340-300. The Airbus has four engines to the Boeing's two. The Airbus is quiter, and I swear I experience less turbulance whenever on an Airbus aircraft, though this is probably just coincidence.

Reminds me of the old saying from when the DC10s where having a bad string of accidents
"If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going."

fvck that, fly ethiopian airlines. i can bet a $100 they pick up old planes from the airplane graveyard and put them together with duct tape. plus it was a smoking flight which is a lot of fun. i guessing they don't do the smoking bit anymore.

and before anyone asks: yes, ethiopia does have an airline

edit: air china and the multitude of domestic airlines in china are pretty good. and they are extra-friendly to you if you're not chinese (mainly coz you paid much more than a chinese citizen).

holy crap i did fly ethiopian in 1996, but it was a flight out of Addis Ababa to Beijing and it flew over the himalayas, damn scary if you're in a plane that's rattling like crazy, all the fvcking time.

The poll should have been like Boeing and Lockheed. Doesnt Airbus suck or something?

Uhm ... Lockheed hasn't built an airliner since the L1011 back in the 70's I think.
Boeing is the only manufacturer of large civil aircraft left in the US since they bought out McDonnell Douglas a few years back.
