Airbus vs. Boeing

[President Johnson]

The two old major competitors in aviation. Which one do you prefer?

Obviously I prefer Airbus, especially after latest developments with Boeing. Seems like the European company is producing the better/safer planes.

[Meclazine for Israel]

I like the big Airbus. Is it the A380?

That thing just plows through the air making it the smoothest form of transport in human history.

[Illiniwek]

Formerly Boeing. Obviously Airbus now. Its not even up for debate.

[Mr. Smith]

Airbus today, tomorrow, and forever.

EDIT: Unfortunately Southwest uses all Boeings. Oh well.

[No War, but the War on Christmas]

Aviation was one of the few things I actually still found myself being somewhat 'patriotic' about in the past, but 'alas... If I had any upcoming flights, I'd probably opt for an Airbus all things being equal for the foreseeable future.

Yes. A380 is an amazing airplane. I had the privilege to travel to New York and back via A380 last October. It's absolutely massive.

When it comes to purchasing a new generation of VLAs (very large aircraft), I expect the Airbus A350-1000 to be edging out the Boeing 777X in coming years, and all thanks to Boeing getting greedy and trying to find short-cuts so as to maximize their sales at the expense of safety.  It is only the 737-MAX that has had these issues so far, but I expect every Boeing aircraft to be coming under the same shadow of distrust going forward. 

[SnowLabrador]

Airbus, which makes me feel pretty ashamed to be American given that our planes are literally liable to fall from the sky.

[Dr. Cynic]

I PREFER to stay on the ground. Of course, I have to vote for Airbus because that's who the little woman works for.

[Middle-aged Europe]

I sure like my planes without the doors flying off.

Airbus.

Boeing. I like their open door policy.

 The decline of Boeing is very sad. Airbus also proves that government ownership and oversight does not stop a company from making innovative and great products. A large part of Airbus is state owned across several Europeans countries and Airbus doesn't essentially own their regulators like Boeing did the FAA. I think these are the principle reasons why Airbus has succeeded as of late as Boeing has declined.
