For the record I'm not anti-Boeing... and I'm not really anti/pro Airbus or even MD. I like to be over the top with the MD stuff but ya'll all let me get away with it and never question my sensibilities... maybe its because you don't want me to bid off?
But that aside, imho I see Boeing built one hell of a fleet in the 737, 747, 756 and 777.
However, the Boeing of today is like a 40 year old that just wants a paycheck and not a career.
Hence, scandals, waste, unwise planing base on school book theories, hesitancy and incompetence.

What ever happened to the mythical 10 A330s that we were supposed to get in the last year or so, on the open market? Oh yeah, that Captain I talked to also mentioned that the A330s also come in a freighter version. I said I thought Delta didn't want to do cargo, and he stated Delta didn't want the old 742s to do cargo. Just a rumor, though! WHATEVER with a big W done with my fingers!
767s are pretty good cargo jets aren't they?

I'm thinking that the A321 is going to be one hell of a pig, especially on the transcon legs. I'm sure it can go coast to coast, but initial cruise altitude will probably be in the high 20's to low 30's. Doesn't make for a very good ride on those "weather days". Same issue with the 767-400 and the 757-300 I guess. Anybody ever flown a 321? Is it the same wing?
