Hey, fair point on the technological differences etc, and I'm all for the conventional equipment over the fly by wire anyday, BUT,

if there is substance to your claim, why aren't all the major carriers in the world parking all their 737NG, 747-400s, newer 767s and 777s and instead getting their hands on some crusty 747-300s, since they are after all *SO* nice to travel in?

No disrespect but I think I would rather travel in a Tristar before I travel in a B743, particularly a QF one. Ugh.

It strikes me that your viewpoint may be from an engineering point of view more than overall comfort/product/passenger point of view.... (?)
