A 747 that stalls? Man, what airline are you flying on?

Boeing already said that they would focus on the shuttle concept rather than the international carrier model.

This article goes completely against that.

It might end up being called a BWB, Blended Wing Barfer.

They would simply change their flying style, just as military pilots change their style to fly passenger planes. They fly in a way which is most comfortable to the passenger.

Would be funny, BWing Barfer.

Boeing > Airbus

It's like NVIDIA vs ATi and AMD vs Intel...something new will always come along. I'll be happy with a 777 flight to China.

To be a real 'ultimate Airbus crusher' it would have to rack up over 160 orders. Tomorrow. Has it got even one? No.

He's telling the truth.
