Just in case you are still unsure, I get great pleasure flying the A330 / A340 and do not wish to return to Mr Boeing
I would never have guessed that judging by your previous post.
There are some very open-minded Airbus pilots on this thread who accept and acknowledge the best and the worst of the aircraft they fly.Post 1491 confirms what I have always believed about this aircraft.I say "believed" because having never flown it(and never will) I must step carefully having been burned on a previous thread.
NOD's reference to Air China upset(and others) is not so open-minded and unbiased if hes attempting to use it to compare the two designs.The Air China upset was a clear case of pilot error.The culprit was the pilot.We dont know yet to what extent(if any) system design played a part in 447.The jury is out.The BEA is that jury and it will be interesting to see if they can remain totally impartial and unbiased.I doubt it but lets wait and see.
