Airbus VS Boeing
Posted: Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:28 pmOk I'm wondering who likes to fly what better. . .
Pretty limited poll...
A380 or the 787? I don't fly either.
But if I were to choose its, Boeing generally would get my vote.

Posted: Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:49 pmThe A380 model looks just simply beautiful. I love it and everytime I even look at it I still think that it looks great.
Great job by Airbus, im dieing to see one in real life.

Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 7:17 amBearing in mind that the flight dynamics of the 787 are only on a computer at Boeing, then as far as that aircraft is concerned it is a bit of a guess really. I tend to use the default 737.

Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 11:46 amI am a Boeing fan myself. I just think flying large aircraft with a joystick is wrong. (I am talking about the real thing here) I have seen an A-380 in Australia in October two days before its maiden flight for Qantas carrying passengers and I must say it is quite an amazing feat of engineering. I am looking forward to the 787's introduction to the industry.

Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 12:31 pmSeeing as there are no good models of either plane for FSX, I think this poll is kinda redundant 
Nevertheless...
I prefer the design of the A380, but I can't stand the Airbus controls... fly-by-wire my *** :D
