Plenty?

I can think of a 757 in South America but that's about it...off the top of my head.

There are less than completely competent pilots flying Boeings too - thanks to 3rd world (mostly) airline politics

Apart from F28, Bae146, Falcon, Citation, B757/767 and B777/787 my licence also has B737-300/900 on it - automation wise there isn't much difference between the 300/400 and 800ng.

There is not an aircraft built I am AFRAID of...I do have my preferences. I am sure from a pure 'poke it around the sky' point of view an airbus is as nice as most Boeings...better than some...the 767 was a real gravel truck handling wise...but for as long as a human is sitting behind the controls I think Boeing does it better than Airbus.
