I have flown with enough ex "Boeing or I am not going" types to tell you, once you go bus you never go back. Well until bigger pays better.
If I were ever told "well, we're switching to the airbus guys", I'd say "thanks for the memories and good luck y'all. I'm retiring".
Plus, Boeing's one of the last bastions of american manufacturing (okay, outsourcing notwithstanding). And it's a damn fine product, too.
