Boeing did not enjoy a monopoly before Airbus. It had very serious competition from Douglas/McDonnel Douglas and Lockheed. In fact, before the 707, Boeing's prop-liners were relatively unpopular, with airlines preferring the DC-6/7 and Lockheed Constellation over the Boeing 307 or 377 as demonstrated by the large disparity in number of airplanes built. Boeing gained ground with the 707, but Douglas built a similar number of DC-8s.

- The British-made Comet, which first flew in 1949 was the first jetliner. It still suffered some design flaws that the French-made Caravelle will correct by 1955. The 707 and DC-8 will come several years after the Comet and the Caravelle, but they'll benefit of large economies of scale thanks to the huge US domestice market, making them very competitive. The struggle for European manufacturers has never been technical, it has always been about reaching critical market size, something that will be ultimately done thanks to Airbus.

I enjoyed my flights on the stated models, and I view the entire "Boeing vs Airbus" argument as entirely stupid. There are some features that makes Boeing better than Airbus, and vice versa. A more detailed list on the aircraft that I have flown on: 737 - Southwest Airlines 747 - Philippine Airlines 767, 787 - Japan Airlines 777 - Korean Air A320 Family - Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific A330, A380 - Korean Air I know that some people might accuse me of lying, but what other way can I think of to prove that I am not lying other than just typing: "I swear I'm not lying?"

The best feature on the A310 that isn't talked about very often is the Cockpit Kindergarten. It was only used once in 1994 and didn't prove to be successful. I was quite happy with the seatback entertainment on my Emirates A310 back in Dec 1994.

- @@beni5149 Kudrinski Jr had a go at the controls on Aeroflot 593 and subsequently brought a few of the autopilot parameters into manual control. Needless to say, he turned the flight into a aeroplane's version of X2 at 6 flags magic mountain and made a right hash of things. They could have recovered the dive, but altitude was against them. Admittedly, FS2020 with the A310 model wasn't available during tha time as I think MSFS was only at version 3.0 or 4.0. Point is, kid in the cockpit sat in your father's left hand seat will always spell disaster. Spasiba

12:40 you forgot to add Aeroflot Flight 593. It was also an A310-300, that crashed into a mountain near Mezhdurechensk. Aeroflot flight 593 was a scheduled flight from Moscow to Kong-Hong. On the altitude of 33 100 feet or 10 300 meters Kudrinsky let his kids control the aircraft. He first let his daughter named Yana (12-13 years old) take a captain seat and turn the yoke to the left then to the right. He made an illusion like she is controlling the aircraft, but in reality he was changing the heading. Then he let his son Eldar (15 years old) take a captain seat and also turn the yoke to the left then to the right. Eldar made heading autopilot disconnect, which made the aircraft bank slowly to the right. When crew noticed it, it was too late.

"still hurting from the failure of Concorde the British withdrew from the project.." Totally wrong. Concorde's first flight: 2 March 1969. The British left the A300 project in April 1969, The NYT: « Britain Abandons the European Airbus Project; Believes Building the Plane Is a Losing Proposition. » When it emerged that RR would not be supplying the A300 engines the British government’s anti-Airbus stance grew. But the real reason why Brits left Airbus was BAC was then working on the BAC 3-11, secretly seen by the Brits as the "A300 killer".. Th 3-11 was a wide-body airliner, in a similar class of size, weight, and range, to the Airbus design. During 1969 and 1970, the British government-owned airline BEA expressed willingness to operate the Three-Eleven. In addition to BEA, several other airlines declared their support for the Three-Eleven proposal, but no orders were placed: the design had not been finalised and the programme itself has not been actually launched… In 1971, BAC decided to abandon the 3-11. By the mid-70s, the Airbus A300 design had been finalised and had attracted modest but sufficient orders. And today Airbus is world leader, thanks to the French and Germans...

- I can agree with the 737 because its a 70 year old plane but not the 15 year old 787 Dreamliner. But no one can say that the sidestick is better than the yoke!
  @thacheesedoodle7 ай бұрын
- @blue.turtle I gotta disagree with you on that one. The yoke is designed for both hands. For takeoff and landing you have one hand on the yoke and one on the throttle. That would make controlling the aircraft harder. With a side stick, there's an arm rest specifically designed to rest your arm while controlling the plane, while you can monitor the throttle with the other hand. Sidestick seems to give more accurate control, and is more comfortable. If rather sit for hours using a sidestick rather than holding my arms out with a yoke. This comment got way too long, and I'm not even sure if it makes sense. I'm not a pilot and definitely haven't flown a boeing or airbus. I'm just a kid who likes planes.
