I didn't say Boeing was better than Airbus, I merely pointed out that Airbus doesn't hold the sweepstakes on being on time with its products, nor do they always meet expectations. Although, to be fair, it was a massive undertaking, the 380 was several years late and I am sure the 350 will have issues as well.
Personally I do prefer Boeing as I don't like the Airbus philosophy and also I feel that Boeing build a sturdier product.....not many 20 year old 320s flying around Congo....but they both have their strengths and weaknesses.
