| I think I'm with High Heeled - slightly confused about use of the word "competent" and "failed" in the same question. Surely, competent = fit for purpose = not a failure?
However, reading into what Chris is getting at I wonder about the A340-600. A successful aircraft but perhaps too big to get easily into a few awkward fields that it otherwise is ideally placed to serve (e.g. Iberia over run at Quito) |
