why do the fly more slowlly?
could anyone please explain this to me: why do the airbuses usually have lower speed limit than boeings?
eeer, The word approach speed was not used, and indeed the word cruise speed also.

It seems to me we could have gone either way in trying to answer this question.

However the A320 on average has a higher approach speed than the B737-200/300.
