Avgeeks and People who know nothing about aviation fight over which is better, Airbus vs Boeing. People say Airbus because it's safer and has less frequent crashes. Avgeeks who still does love Airbus might agree with them or argues and still supports Boeing because of how wrong the general public describes it will say Boeing because it's older, and naturally has more crashes because it's older. I'm a former avgeek and I personally have a favourite model on each manufacturer. Airbus A350 is my top 1 all time, 747 for Boeing being my 2nd, 777 being 3rd. I like the A350 because of its smooth design especially the mask, which makes the plane so much more beautiful no matter what the time of the day is, but it feels surreal on dusk, dawn, and night. I like the 777 because of its depiction of sheer scale, it rivals the A350-1000 by size, but still feels a lot bigger because of its looks. Though yes, generic option like most avgeeks, but at least unlike the general public who simply likes A380 and 747 just because of fame of being the giants, not comfort, history, or technology, though yes I like 747, but for a different reason, because of history. And that's how we should treat Boeing and Airbus too. Airbus is to technology, Boeing is to history, see? Both even rhymes.

Airbus = Boeing.

Even airlines know this, especially major ones who owns at least one model from both manufacturers, though smallers ones tend to have a reasonable reason why they picked that side, but take Luftansa, Philippine Airlines, KLM, Aeroflot, British Airways, Delta do want to go further!? God, even Emirates is on a 50/50 with 2 Airbus models, 2 Boeing models, A380 and A350, 777 and soon the 787.

IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
