I think the airbus product is garbage. Comforatable? Absolutely, but otherwise garbage. They won't stand the test of time like the 707 (still flying), 727, 737, 747, 757, and 767.
While companies may not love everything about the 737, they realize they are buying a well-made, proven, and dependable airplane. The same can't be said about Fifi.
