I love how Airbus pilots call Boeing’s “old” technology. True, a 737 is the aeronautical equivalent of a record player and the NG is a brand new record player, with a digital display...however, think about this, the 76 is 2 years older than a 320 and the production line is booked solid for the next 15 years. 30 year old 737’s are still very much in service worldwide and are being converted to freighters in the NG(digital record player) model already as opposed to being converted into beer cans. Another fantastic feature of 200 year old technology is that the Captain can see what FO spike hair instachat is doing with the controls.
