MODERATORS
After watching the documentary about Boeing's South Carolina production site, no thanks. I do not want to fall from the sky like a bucket of juice. Airbus is more appealing to me.
Before all of the stuff I used to not pay any attention what planes were part of my route. Now it’s definitely a factor I consider.
I think airbus is going to own the market after this
No they cant manufacture fast enough and dont have the capacity, top it off covid lay waste to the industry
Do we have any sort of reassurance that airbus hasn't also suffered an erosion of safety culture in favor of cost cutting and faster production?
Nope! But the other option is proven to be so, what choice do you really have if you want to fly?
Not American.
Being 25% government owned?
Airbus will share the market with Comac. Boeing will slowly sink into irrelevance.
