Yeah, sorry. It's been about 5 years since I flew the Airbus. On the MD-11 we can use Max for landing. It's really quite exciting. Must have meant Medium. I'd forgotten that on the Airbus, Maximum is only for RTO's. Thanks.

POS french airplane !
What a crock. The Saab I used as an airport car had the tail fall off once. Cost me $37 to get it fixed. You'd be much better off flying one of them new Volvos. And I hear it pays better... almost $15/hr.

Unfounded? have you been living in a hole?

The tail literally came off an American A300 in flight. All that was left were the mounting bolts.

Check it out for yourself

Mark, I'm wondering if you are really a pilot or you play with Flight Sim all day? I can't believe you are acting this way over an Airbus comment. I would have expected this on that other forum with pictures but not here. Can't we all just get along?

It's great how a 40 something guy got involved in a "my airplane is better than yours" debate. What a tool.

It was NEVER about his "airplane" being bigger ...

Glad that a 37 year old with your maturity is flying the blender I bought my grandmother for christmas around and not my family.

Calm down. These peeing matches are getting old for those of us who have learned to stay out of them.
