For those of you who have never flown the Airbus. STAY AWAY the airplane is a death trap. Heed my warning DO NOT BID the left seat of the Bus!
Some true facts about the Airbus..
Fly by wire, die by fire....
The difference between an A-320 and a chainsaw? About 300 trees a minute.
An Airbus once got stuck in a holding pattern. They were never able to get it to exit. It's still there just circling around with a bunch of skeletons ridding along for eternity.
The flight control system takes a PHD in french and physics to understand.
Flying the Airbus does not make you gay. But it does make you look gay.
The airplane calls you a retard on landing.
You never really fly an Airbus you just give it suggestions and then it overrides you...
DO NOT bid the Bus, consider yourself warned.

$.02 cents...and worth less than half, on a good day. The guppies are utter FOD, own it. LOVE trans-cons, topping out at 33k (ain't no T-storms that high no how!)...making 35k an hour prior to TOD, AND being short on gas...not to mention flying within 16.9 knots of yellow band, NO excess thrust available, +- 12 knots in VNAV, and stalling one every 3-4 months at altitude...
The Guppy is a pathetic excuse of an aircraft..."if it's Boeing I'm not going..." And for good reason |
