risky topic:) hopefully we can show more maturity on this one than anet forums Wink

Boeing. Although the A330 is a nice passenger aircraft.
Niether can compete with the MD line of aircraft, especially the DC10 Grin

For the looks, I go with Boeing.
But technically/engineering wise, Airbus gets my vote, hands down.

Voted Airbus

And if they hadn't we wouldn't have the MD11 and DC10's still flying. Or the DC9's.

Uh-oh, remember the last time someone started this? It's like that one poll was collectively insulting everyone's mother...

I voted Boeing... personally, I have no preference between the two. Guess just because boeings been around longer.

I didn't badly misword anything so you can attack me, did I nexus? Grin

I think you mght as well ask people where they live. You would probably get the same result. Wink

If this were A.net, we would have your head for this A vs B poll Grin

, but just for kicks...sign up there and try it Tongue

Personally, I voted Airbus. I like them for looks, design, quality. Otherwise, my fav airliner is the IL-96, which, if you haven't noticed, resembles a A345/346!

Just in case he decides to ask.

One is nicknamed the "Scare Bus" and the other sounds like if it were in an accident, it would bounce. Do we need to clarify on where I voted? lol

Today just proves us. It is like a slap in the face to Boeing. Wake up!! You got competition! And theyre passing you by fast! Love the 747 and 737 though!

Actually, there was a good possibility that if that hadn't happened, AIRBUS would have bought out McDonnell-Douglas, and we'd have had the MD-12/A-380 flying a lot sooner than 2005 ...

Face it, the A-380 is incredibly like the planned MD-12!
