Boring sorta buys Embraer

More 340s. That's the ticket!

The 777 killed the 340's. And the 773 is killing the 350-1000. And the 787 is just. . . killing in its niche! But, tray tables!

 

[L-16B]

For the Airbus nerdfest, it’s always about that silly tray table. I just don’t get it. Nobody grew up dreaming of fondling a side dildo while a kale salad sat on a tray table in front of them.

Kale is disgusting!!

There's gonna be A330Neo going from ORD to ATL today. Caught a glimpse of that thing picking up the wife from the swissport yesterday - eyeliner's nice, but 787 has a prettier face.
I am a traytable fan though

A330neo, is the ugly girl that wants every guy. But no guy actually wants.

I'm an Airbus fanboi. Totally. If I were king, I'd park the 320's (reopen the line) and buy more 319s and 321s, 330's, 340s, 350s, maybe even some 380s to bombard KDAL with and pee on SWA's lawn.

Ewww. I'm flying on a Delta A320 out to Vegas next week. I felt dirty booking the ticket. Almost took a connecting flight instead to avoid the Airbus stink.

. . .that's rather excessive!

I really don't like Airbus.

I think that if you flew the 787 and maybe the 777, it would help renew your love of things that are Boeing, that aren't a 737.

A trim switch on a FBW aircraft doesn't make sense to me.

Well, actually, there's a trim switch on the EMB-175, and it has FBW.

What do you like better, the 175, or the 190?

 

[AAPalmTree]

I really don't like Airbus.

I’m curious how much 737 and Bus time you got?

 

[SlumTodd_Millionaire]

I’m curious how much 737 and Bus time you got?

I'm not sure how that's relevant to what I feel comfortable flying on as a paying passenger.

DIE!!

Lol.. a passenger. Doesn’t get more informed that that!

 

[AAPalmTree]

These guys busted me in ATL for driving a 737. I did not meet QOL standards.

 

[SlumTodd_Millionaire]

Lol.. a passenger. Doesn’t get more informed that that!

Glad I fly Delta. The nAAtives seem hostile towards the customers!

@AAPalmTree was the thread title intentional, or perhaps a freudian slip?

Are all new Airbus e.g. 320NEO getting the eyeliner or is it airline specific.

 

[Screaming_Emu]

I’m 110% ok with that as long as pilots are still in the cockpit. I can’t understand when people gripe about flying old airplanes.

I would like world wide CPDLC and then they can stop innovating in front of the cockpit door. I feel like we are in the sweet spot of aviation technology. The boring and tedious parts are automated, but we can still turn everything off and fly the damn plane.

Regardless, if you enjoy narrow body domestic flying you’re weird.

I’m gonna go out on a limb here for Todd and say:
It doesn’t matter because he flew an MD product. The DC-9 type rating makes the user eminitly qualified to judge all airplanes!
