Is this Dale Gribble speaking to you from the future, because the A350 is not out yet, it's not even drawn.

Airbus made a time machine, so he used it to go ahead and fly the A350.

I'm sure he meant A330 or something!?

Boeing test flight: 707- rolls the plane over Seattle with press on board.

Airbus test flight: A320- does low pass and crashes into trees.

"If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going!"

The ugliest plane in the world aside from the dc-9 series is the 737. It look like a overwieght midget. The nicest is the a320 and 757. Its like a nice women. Long Legs, Skinny body and big titts.

Looks like boeing might be coming out on top. FedEx dropped the 380 and went to boeing instead.

How a 737 looks also depends a lot on the paint... Southwest's 737's don't look 'overweight' nearly as much as others. Whether it has winglets or not also makes a big difference. They look a whole lot meaner if they have 'em...

If you like hi-cap Glock pistols and like your vehicle to have an automatic transmission, chances are you'll prefer an Airbus. If you like a 1911A1 or revolver, and like your vehicle to have a manual transmission, you'll probably prefer Boeing.

I have a S&W and a car with manual transmission, so I guess that's why I fly a Boeing.
