True chilled out aussie there, what you all missed at the start of the video was the captain saying 'its gonna be fine, we've got some shrimps on the barbie in the back' haha
It took the top crew of Qantas 2 hours to land back!!1Thank God for airplanes like the B-777 built by BOEING!Checklist procedures and manuals by AIRBUS STINK!!!!
@madisonelectronic Guessing your American? It was a Rolls Royce engine failure, the same engine brand used on most Boeing planes. Controlled flight on a plane that size after an engine explosion, that's pretty damn impressive
the calmness of the pilot is incredible considering the scale of the problem on the wing. and he was even apoligising as if it was just an inconvinence. like they do if there delayed.
@MisterSunson That is why they are being called the Scare-BUs 380's in the industry...just about every landing regardless of wind and weather rattles your teeth fillings... matter of time.. sorry to say...airframes not meant to keep hitting that hard....have to be feeling lucky to board this aircraft
@beergut111 At least during last years Airbus has sold many more planes than Boeing, and thats what matters. This engine was made by Rolls Royce anyway and they make engines for Boeing too, so not Airbus fault at all.
@beergut111 From various reasons, mainly because they just were poor and saw new continent as new beginning and way to get rich by hard work. And ofc some of them for example did belong to some religious view that wasnt accepted during those times and left Europe because of that.
@Pvjinflight Actually, most emigrants wanted to get away from the them very strictly religious Europe.
Now of course it's the other way around.
But that really is besides the topic.
Besides Airbus and Boeing both makes excellent planes, and I'm not afraid to say that the only reason I prefer Airbus is because I think they are nicer, and have nothing to do with their technical merits.
Are you aware that the 747 was introduced in 1970, while the A380 was introduce in 2007? No doubt that the 747 would have a good amount of crashes/death. Accidents can occur at any time, no what airliner.
i dont know why is this hostility against airbus, people should just get their heads out of ther behinds, the plane got down, in one piece, and they didnt even need to run away from it, all this, with a blown up RR engine, i think that Airbuses are miraculously engineered machines. Boeing has an equal record compared to AB, but they arent bad planes either. They are different, and people just hate change, and americans hate it when europe makes something thats on par with their product
@today05 that's what it's all about, no one wants to lose the top spot, so they do this kind of sabatoge to other companies. yea, yea, i also read about the micro-cracks in some of the a380's wings beams that hold the aluminum to them, but they are minor enough to be addressed in 4 yrs, this is an awesome aircraft, move over boeing, that top spot is coming loose.
@today05 This is true i do not like it :( and i dont see why people are blaming airbus although i can say GO BOEING but its RR fault airbus didnt make the faulty engines so now its time to shift to the GE Vs. RR Vs. PW. Let the battles begin!!!! >: )
@today05 americans have inferiority complex and wants to dominate everything but unfortunately they are ignorant all they the time. which is a good thing for the rest of the world ^^
@DapperJas Quantas uses more powerful engines than most others because of their pacific routes to and from Sidney. They need that little extra to get the fuel heavy planes in the air.
"this is your captain speaking, we have experienced a complete engine failure which has torn through some vital control lines of the aircraft. We're trying really hard to keep the plane flying at a level angle since some of the slats on the left wing are now inoperable. We've never seen so many warning lights come to life on the cockpit of this beast, it's incredible really. Anyhow, we're now headed back to Singapore"
@iammrprince yeah he almost sounded like he was simply pointing out the scenery or a delay rather than a catasrophic engine failure and fuel leak and wing damage and flight control damage.
@LottoWinner999 how is airbus a piece of shit ??so what one engine fails big WOW it happens alot and airbus dont make the engines rolls royce do so maybe we should blame them for their dodgy engine??
@LottoWinner999 how is airbus a piece of shit ??so what one engine fails big WOW it happens alot and airbus dont make the engines rolls royce do so maybe we should blame them for their dodgy engine??
@irfan123100 i know it's not explosion but if you look at few other videos about this same incident the shows the whole part of the engine ripped apart...
@irfan123100 Yeah, i did some googling afterwards and turns out that A380 can be flown even if all hydraulics fail(VERY unlikely). You just lose flaps n stuff like that. If hydraulics fail then it can still fly with help of the : Electrical-Hydrostatic Actuators and the Electrical Backup Hydraulic Actuators.
@oke139 the Electro-Hydrostatic Actuators can be used to control a section of the ailerons and the elevators whilst the Electrical Back-up Hydraulic Actuators can power the rudders and part of the spoilers enabling enough control to bring the aircraft back safely while another electrically powered hydraulic system called LEHGS handles the landing gear breaking and nose wheel steering.
@marcelodelagoXD From what I understand, considering the damage to the wing and the systems in it, any other plane would probably have been incapable of controlled flight after the incident.
@jainish007 The engine is supposed to contain the fan blades, as they are the ones that are usually the dangerous ones because of their weight. The engines on the Quantas incident failed further back on the engine, in the high pressure turbine. and rear of the containment shroud.
From what I understand the plane fuselage were struck by about 100 pieces of debris as well, though none penetrated. The damage to the wing though were nearly catastrophic. Some say any other plane would have crashed.
To all the people criticizing Boeing/ Airbus. STFU. Airlines debate on the purchases of airplanes, on what trips they'll be doing. Long or short haul flights. Any engine failure is NOT the airlines fault, but the engine manufacturer.(GE , ROLLS ROYCE).
Yep and U obviously can't give any valid reasons why U feel Airbus builds better. Just the usual, dismissal of any competitor on here without really reading what was said. It's irrelevant whether believe I've used both on many occasions but U got to ask why no one wants to buy the "superior product". Sales stand at 120 for the A380 to 965 for the B787 As for your last sentence, Airbus is a piece of shit with two wings, now that is funny! Never forget an Airbus is a piece of shit with 2 wings.
@AdverbAdjective What I meant when I said it wasn't a success for Boeing is the airlines are robbing Peter to pay Paul in terms of the 787 and 777. Airlines are cancelling or transferring their orders from the 787 to order the 777 instead. Besides you can't just look at sale figures, you need to look at sale revenue and profit. Airbus generates far more revenue per unit. For example 90x2=180 where as 127x1=127. In this example Airbus is earning $53 more even though it has sold less.
@AdverbAdjective I wouldn't, however, call Boeing's orders a complete success when you look at them in depth. Boeing has been thrusted forward by the power house that is the 777. Operators have been cancelling and swapping their 787 orders left right and centre meaning that for 2011 the 787 has negative orders for the fourth year running.
@cheesemaster1000 You're trying to reason with someone who has no interest whatsoever in reasoning. Airbus sucks because he says so. Boeing outsells them... because he says so, numbers be damned. Nothing you write will have an influence on him.
@Smoznizjev Yeah I give up, I have better things to spend my time on than this low life. I'm all up for a debate but not when the opponent doesn't acknowledge the facts.
@AdverbAdjective Airbus has beat Boeing in sales 3 years straight and for the 8th year running beat Boeing on deliveries too. In 2010 Airbus had a 52% market share in the whole commercial airplane market. Airbus got off to a good start in January with an MOU for 180 A320s from IndiGo and a confirmed order from both Asiana and Skymark for the A380. In April Airbus received 100 firm orders compared to Boeing's 2. Haha. Scores on the 2011 doors, Airbus:90 Boeing:127.
@AdverbAdjective According to the Boeing website, they have sold 'over 6000 737 units'. According to the Airbus website they have sold 6956 A320 series aircraft. Airbus have sold more A320s than Boeing have 737s, despite the A320 being half as old. Meaning the A320 is the fastest selling jet of all time. It would appear all those operators would call Boeing more "shitty".
@cheesemaster1000 Actually, for the sake of correctness, Boeing's website lists total 737 orders to date as 8886. That still makes the A320 series the fastest selling jet of all time though, considering it sold almost 7000 units in half the time it took Boeing to sell 9000.
@Smoznizjev I did try to find an exact figure but Boeing aren't too forthcoming with their orders so I only found the 6000+ figure on the 737 family page. What amazes me is there have been more fatalities recorded on 737NG aircraft than there have been on the whole A320 series throughout its history. An aircraft that has sold more units and been around since '88 has had fewer fatalities than an aircraft launched in '98!
@cheesemaster1000 Actually, it's pretty easy to find all orders on Boeing's website: go to products, commercial airplanes, orders and deliveries, and then 'user defined reports'. You can find every single order ever placed for a Boeing or McDonnell Douglas aircraft. Don't know what number you have for fatalities on 737NG vs A320 family, but you're again incorrect: A320 family: 806, 737NG: 527. There are of course more A320 family aircraft around, and they've been around nine years longer.
@AdverbAdjective Haha, as if Boeing didn't get illegal government subsidisation. And you make it sound as if Airbuses are unsafe, firstly the Qantas captain complemented the way the A380 performed during the incident and secondly the engines were made by RR so Airbus is hardly at fault. If you actually bothered to look at the preliminary of the AF FDR findings you would find out that all things point to pilot error not mechanical failure.
@cheesemaster1000 Don't try to argue with him, he's a useless idiot. He says Airbuses are unsafe, and to him, that's all the proof he needs. Sources to back up his claim, or actual accidents that were the fault of Airbus are irrelevant in his world. He says it, therefore it's true and you lose the discussion for disagreeing. A Boeing could crash because of a design error, and he'd brush it off. An Airbus could crash because it was shot down, and he'd see it as proof Airbuses are shitty planes.
@AdverbAdjective Bloody idiot. I shot down every one of your arguments. No wait, you didn't have any when I asked for something decent. You lost the discussion a couple of days ago. To still not realise that now, takes a special category of fucking stupid.
Oh, and capital letters: ever heard of 'em? English is my thrid language and I'm better at it than you are...
Unless your next reply contains something to back up your claims (and let's face it, it won't) I'm done with you.
Air New Zealand 737-300: emergency landing after engine needed to be shut down;
All of these are from 2011. If I was a bit of an idiot like you, I'd see that as proof Boeing builds shitty planes. Luckily, I'm smarter than you, and so I realise that that is not the case: mechanical problems happen, and unfortunately planes crash every so often. It doesn't always say anything about whether the plane is safe or not. Now, how about those crashes where Airbus was at fault?
@AdverbAdjective ...none of which were because of the plane's design. In fact, that's probably the lousiest attempt I've seen anybody take at answering that question - ever. Congratulations.
Not to mention you're leaving the door open for one hell of a response. Let's look at comparable Boeing numbers for 2010: Ethiopian 737-800, killing 90, Air India 737-800, killing 158, UPS 747-400F, killing 2.
And, since we're now even counting cracked windshields as a proof of a plane being shitty...
I am an absolute Boeing fan. But I do not believe that Airbus makes bad aircraft. If that were the case Airlines would know that by experience and stop buying them. Since they are selling like hot cakes, this is clearly not the case. I am hoping they will find out what happend to AF447 though.
@AdverbAdjective Oh, funny how you suddenly dropped the 'airline company' and '12 out of the last 22 years' lines. Lost the argument, so move on to some other crap and hope nobody notices?
How many pilots do you know btw? I know quite a few, and most who actually fly Airbuses absolutely love them, and many prefer them over Boeing.
Both Airbus and Boeing are outstanding aircraft manufacturers. The professionals know that, the airlines know that. The ADULTS know. Grow up.
@AdverbAdjective Seriously, you're 22? Anyway, please name ONE Airbus crash that was due to the aircraft's design. I'll name you four Boeing crashes: NG004, TW800, UA585 and US427. All were the result of a design error. Not a single Airbus has so far crashed because of a design error. AF447 could be the first, but that's far from sure. As far as Airbus being the 'laughing stock'? Trust me: Boeing aren't laughing. They take them VERY seriously, for good reason. And they know better than you.
Boeing all the way. My family member has been a pilot for nearly 20 years. Hes, said that he rather take a 30 year old Boeing 747 any time of the day then the crap that Airbus makes.
@AdverbAdjective Airbus is an 'airline company'? Since when? You're 22, so I think you should be capable of distinguishing between a manufacturer and an airline, no? As for 'shitty ass Airbus'? Well, that shitty ass company has been outselling Boeing for a few years now. You may not respect them, but rest assured those who know a few things about planes, including Boeing, most certainly do. Oh, and Airbus doesn't build engines.
@AdverbAdjective You brainless idiot, find a job and stop bitching over the internet, you are just another mistake of nature, you should be locked in a cage and sent to Africa, without you world will get better.
As more and more of these monstrocities hit the ariways, we are going to see more incidents like this. It's unbelievable that so many of these incidents are happening on such a new airplane. When this thing goes down, it will be like wiping out a small town.
@Handiman544 Statistically, airliners are far safer than they were 20, even 10 years ago. I agree that if one suffered a catastrophic failure, the loss of life could be terrible but given the much stricter regulations & maintenance procedures, far fewer aircraft crash annually. Aircraft size has, to some degree, been governed by the need to reduce planes in the sky whilst increasing passenger numbers.
when you think airforce one aircrafts are always serviced and checked throughly before each flight takes place. Commercial aircraft are treated like workhorses between service periods. when you think about it they take an enourmous amount of stress between service periods.

Damn this footage is just not dramatic enough for the BBC... no one is screaming, nothing is exploding or even on fire, the plane is just flying normally... Oh I know! let's say the hole is "gradually expanding", that will make the story much more exciting.

Can any one tell me what lotion is good for the painful callous blisters on the end of my tiny little Monkey-Prick caused by my excessive spanking?
@LottoWinner999 YAWN!!...Keep em coming Dan. STILL WAITING FOR THOSE ANSWERS ON EXPLODING GE CF-45/50's & cockpit fires on 757/767....Oh that's right, you can't deny the facts can you...Well done Dumb Dan.
@BOACMach2 AKA Evil Airfagger Danette are you making love with your regulation A380 Dildo, make sure U use lurbricant and remove the wings so U don't havt to call the Ambulance again.
RR is more fuel efficient thats the whole idea of triple spool in a twin spool the fan and LP compressor are connected the large blades on the fan reduce the speed at which LP can turn reducing efficiency triple spool allows fan LP and HP stages to all spin at optimal RPM = more efficient also less reliance on variable pitch stators and components = lighter shorter engine but i doubt you don't understand what i just wrote
Someone mentioned it was only a small hole! Lol. Hardly the tip of the iceberg. So much more potential for disaster with parts breaking off and going through the engine and potentially debris flying into hydraulics that would have rendered the aircraft uncontrollable.
@shazzabelle2 Don't forget the Brits + Frogs like to cut corners specailly in the skin covering that was on the De Haviland Comet. This is what happens when Airfags build a plane and rush it onto the market without through testing. I'll bet engine blew from shoddy maintenence one way or the other it seems Airfags have allot crashes and poorly trained uneducated pilots. Remember the A-320 with defective nose gear over a year ago? Well Airfags swept that one under the rugs with other cover ups!
@LottoWinner999 Ya dude you are right. Why would they do thorough (not through) testing on their planes? The Americans do such a good job. DC10...most problem plane. 727's had over 50 crashes, 737's over 80. You should see where I am going with this without involving the rest of the Boeing fleet. Airbuses have much less accidents/problems. All that smack talk from an IDIOT. Stop typing crap, makes you look stupid. It's a lot not allot... see what I mean idiot.
FagRoverWay23 Google Airbus Crashes Utube + see the truth I'm talking about. For some reason Airbus + Quantas refuse to release close up pictures of the wing on the A380 + this is another Comet Coverup. Airfags is desperate + third quarter in RED + their laying off thousands. Airfags use dirty business tactics + try 2 steal USAF Tanker Contract 2 the point U would take a loss on each tanker built just to screw Boeing USA Workers Fuck U our jobs staying home + USA JOBS to Europe will stop.
@LandRoverWay23 The A380 is dog + White Elephant + U have to sell 30 more just to break even + US Carriers are not buying for the simple reason Boeing is the better plane + the world most expereinced Aviation Manufacturerer. The A380 has more than engine problems + that Quantas A380 wing was almost cut in half. Boeing called it right with their new planes while Airfags says lets steal more Jobs from America. Got news for U going to lose more jobs cuz Boeing put Airfags out of its misery!
@LottoWinner999 Wow you really are an idiot. US carriers have airbuses and are still purchasing airbuses. You say " The A380 has more than engine problems." See what I mean by idiot? The engines are RR Trent's, so complain to RR not Airbus. What other companies use RR's? Hmm... Oh ya, BOEING. Like I said about Boeing's crash record, look it up. Just reading what you typed just amazes me on how vacuous you really are. I can tell you haven't come out of the closet from all your fag terms.
@LandRoverWay23 USA Boeing has been building planes for 70 years and flying much longer than Airfags which has 10 to 1 of crash rate per capita in short lenght of time + best example is Airfags De Hailland Comet who let people die when they knew the plane was defective like the A380 which has a harmonic vibration problem. Airfags have been falling from the sky with its passengers screaming save me God and I promise to flying Boeing from now on. My motto I'm not Going unless its Boeing!
@LottoWinner999 Wanna talk about the DC-10, which would have been a good bird had it not shed large parts of itself in flight. Or the catastrophic rudder failures in 737s (did ya Boeing stocks fall when those crashes happened?). I like Americans, but not you; you're the type of nationalistic twat who thinks with heart, not head. If Boeing had built the A380, I GUARANTEE you'd be bleating about what a terrific achievement it is. Airbus is officially the No. 1 aircraft manufacturer in the world.
@TheMightyHartley Let me tell how I feel about U + Airfag buddies. Frog CEO of Airfags said if we have to build tanker @ a loss to put Boeing out of business we will. WTO ruled against unfair Airfag subsidies but it was USA ppl like me who wrote senators, congressamnn + President Obama + united we said we don't want a foreign company building USAF military aircraft period. Build ur own tankers + the way things R going Europe the Frogs + Krauts R trying rearm Europe + steal high paying USA Jobs.
@LottoWinner999 I genuinely think you're a lunatic. You spout embarrassing nonsense that indicates a staggering ignorance. You've been indoctrinated since birth to believe that the US is the best at everything; the rest of the advanced world knows this simply isn't true. I suppose when you start using childish insults (Airfags etc.) it's clear you've lost the debate, and anything additional you rant is invalid.
@TheMightyHartley I own 1500 Shares of Boeing stock + we dislike Pro-Airbus Brits, Frogs, Krauts + Nachos fools who think Airfags is number 1. Its humerous a Limey Fop like U could care for marginalised ppl cuz the only ppl left for Brtis to rip off is 3RD world nations. I know many ppl from India, Hong Kong,New Zealand, Canada + UK former colonies that despise all Brits. The Irish really despise Brits + some day soon U will have more packages for Limeys who block the unifcation of Ireland.
@LottoWinner999 I genuinely think you're borderline insane. Good luck with that (and your Boeing shares, as Airbus begins to ease ahead in the airline stakes)! I'd much rather be a 'Limey fop' than a crazed American frothing at the mouth and chasing his tail around and around and around and around. Serious question: which Brit screwed you over sooooo much that it created this whirling dervish of hate we see before us? Your issues must stem from somewhere! Don't rant - please answer seriously.
@TheMightyHartley Its U Limey Fops that R crazed + U fucked the world + addicted 1/3 of Chinas population at gunpoint by forcing the Chinese to sell opium to their people + House of Commons condemned the act. For 400 years U enslaved India, used slave labor to grow opium with addicted slaves + u murdered millions by opium addiction in China. War crimes in Ireland + Nazi Police state N North Ireland brings more shame. U created Pakistan to spite Ghandi + the 1ST Islamic A-Bomb. U Brits R Fuckups!
@LottoWinner999 LottieLoser is nicknamed "Desperate Dan" on the network. He is the laughing stock of YT, being a Class1 idiot with an amoeba for a brain. Everyone, I mean EVERYONE pulls Dan's remarks to pieces, whatever he blabs on about. As you can see, Dan's a brainless buffoon & vehement anti-Airbus fanatic. He's completely in love with Boeing & GE but I doubt he's got the intelligence to beat a 10 year old. He has no clue about engineering & specialises in making up crash stats to suit.
@BOACMach2 I 'm BOACMach2 , I spout incomprehensible racist rubbish all across youtube making Brits look stupid and myself look like a teenaged loner who compulsively spanks me poor little monkey prick 24/7! Can any one tell me what's a lotion is good for the painful callous blisters on the end of my tiny little Monkey-Prick from over spanking?
@TheMightyHartley Many people call Airbus Airfags and U have to admit its quite appropriate now that Airbus has started hiring Transvestite Flight Attendents. You should run down and put your politically correct application in for being a Psycho. Now what are children supposed to think when the see Airbus Tranvestite Flight Attendents? You Brits really push the envelope with human sexuality + pretty soon Airbus will have prostitutes + massage parlors for perverted deviant passengers like you!
@LottoWinner999 Wing almost cut in half? Ignorant doltish fool. They don't steal jobs, they make a good plane and US carriers buy from them. So, IDIOT, answer this question. Whats worst, this engine problem on the A380, or British Airways flight 38? To those who don't know, flight 38 was a plane crash involving a BOEING 777. Look it up on youtube or google it. Let me know your answer IDIOT.
@LottoWinner999 Oh ya, what about the Qantas BOEING 747 with the hole in the fuselage? Please tell me how Airbus is soooo bad and has substantial amounts of problems and how Boeing doesn't. Do you turn your head away from Boeing's problems? They didn't steal that air tanker business. Airbus just made a better tanker with more options than Boeing did for the same price. Sounds as if Boeing is ripping people off with their over priced planes, that is stealing.
@LandRoverWay23 If U Brits still had ur very own private airplane company U would not want foreigners building your military planes. USA does not want wine guzzling Frogs,Nazi-Krauts +Gay-Foppish Limeys like U building airpalnes 4 USAF. Boeing builds best plane + during WW2 the brave USAAF pilots N B-17 bailed Little Britain a 2ND time when Nazi Germany had U Brits by ur little balls. Its time U Airfags looks outside of the USA for job + were not giving U any more USA jobs or USA welfare checks!
@LandRoverWay23 Boeing wonTanker Contract + those R American Jobs U Brits will not get ur greedy-greasy hands on. I'll bet U Airfags were licken ur chops while drooling over 35 Billon Dollar USAF Contract. Keep on drooling cuz thats as close as U get. U know whyU lost? Boeing build a better plane with new fuel efficient GE engines that U will never get for ur copy-cat hands for ur A350 or A380. That mean U have to develop ur own technology + Boeing has exclusive contract 4 every new GE engine!
@LottoWinner999 actually rolls royce pioneer gas turbine technology namely the triple spool engine that is superior to most GE two spool designs in terms of efficiency and thrust roll royce invented the whole high bypass concept and lets not forget two europeans independently invented the jet engine in the 30s. comet was the first commercial jet Boeing just took lessoned learned from that to build their first. comments made by boeing designers stated had they being first they'd had same problems
what do u mean by "i once inspired the thing i now want to destroy"?

i dont know why is this hostility against airbus, people should just get their heads out of ther behinds, the plane got down, in one piece, and they didnt even need to run away from it, all this, with a blown up RR engine, i think that Airbuses are miraculously engineered machines. Boeing has an equal record compared to AB, but they arent bad planes either. They are different, and people just hate change, and americans hate it when europe makes something thats on par with their product

@oke139 the Electro-Hydrostatic Actuators can be used to control a section of the ailerons and the elevators whilst the Electrical Back-up Hydraulic Actuators can power the rudders and part of the spoilers enabling enough control to bring the aircraft back safely while another electrically powered hydraulic system called LEHGS handles the landing gear breaking and nose wheel steering.

@jainish007 The engine is supposed to contain the fan blades, as they are the ones that are usually the dangerous ones because of their weight. The engines on the Quantas incident failed further back on the engine, in the high pressure turbine. and rear of the containment shroud.
From what I understand the plane fuselage were struck by about 100 pieces of debris as well, though none penetrated. The damage to the wing though were nearly catastrophic. Some say any other plane would have crashed.

levelat350 9 months ago
@AdverbAdjective What I meant when I said it wasn't a success for Boeing is the airlines are robbing Peter to pay Paul in terms of the 787 and 777. Airlines are cancelling or transferring their orders from the 787 to order the 777 instead. Besides you can't just look at sale figures, you need to look at sale revenue and profit. Airbus generates far more revenue per unit. For example 90x2=180 where as 127x1=127. In this example Airbus is earning $53 more even though it has sold less.
cheesemaster1000 9 months ago
@AdverbAdjective I wouldn't, however, call Boeing's orders a complete success when you look at them in depth. Boeing has been thrusted forward by the power house that is the 777. Operators have been cancelling and swapping their 787 orders left right and centre meaning that for 2011 the 787 has negative orders for the fourth year running.

In 2010 Airbus had a 52% market share in the whole commercial airplane market. Airbus got off to a good start in January with an MOU for 180 A320s from IndiGo and a confirmed order from both Asiana and Skymark for the A380. In April Airbus received 100 firm orders compared to Boeing's 2. Haha. Scores on the 2011 doors, Airbus:90 Boeing:127.

WakeUpDummies 9 months ago
@AdverbAdjective According to the Boeing website, they have sold 'over 6000 737 units'. According to the Airbus website they have sold 6956 A320 series aircraft. Airbus have sold more A320s than Boeing have 737s, despite the A320 being half as old. Meaning the A320 is the fastest selling jet of all time. It would appear all those operators would call Boeing more "shitty".
cheesemaster1000 9 months ago
@cheesemaster1000 Actually, for the sake of correctness, Boeing's website lists total 737 orders to date as 8886. That still makes the A320 series the fastest selling jet of all time though, considering it sold almost 7000 units in half the time it took Boeing to sell 9000.
Smoznizjev 9 months ago
@Smoznizjev I did try to find an exact figure but Boeing aren't too forthcoming with their orders so I only found the 6000+ figure on the 737 family page. What amazes me is there have been more fatalities recorded on 737NG aircraft than there have been on the whole A320 series throughout its history. An aircraft that has sold more units and been around since '88 has had fewer fatalities than an aircraft launched in '98!
cheesemaster1000 9 months ago
@cheesemaster1000 Actually, it's pretty easy to find all orders on Boeing's website: go to products, commercial airplanes, orders and deliveries, and then 'user defined reports'. You can find every single order ever placed for a Boeing or McDonnell Douglas aircraft. Don't know what number you have for fatalities on 737NG vs A320 family, but you're again incorrect: A320 family: 806, 737NG: 527. There are of course more A320 family aircraft around, and they've been around nine years longer.

@AdverbAdjective Haha, as if Boeing didn't get illegal government subsidisation. And you make it sound as if Airbuses are unsafe, firstly the Qantas captain complemented the way the A380 performed during the incident and secondly the engines were made by RR so Airbus is hardly at fault. If you actually bothered to look at the preliminary of the AF FDR findings you would find out that all things point to pilot error not mechanical failure.
cheesemaster1000 9 months ago
@cheesemaster1000 Don't try to argue with him, he's a useless idiot. He says Airbuses are unsafe, and to him, that's all the proof he needs. Sources to back up his claim, or actual accidents that were the fault of Airbus are irrelevant in his world. He says it, therefore it's true and you lose the discussion for disagreeing. A Boeing could crash because of a design error, and he'd brush it off. An Airbus could crash because it was shot down, and he'd see it as proof Airbuses are shitty planes.

@Handiman544 Statistically, airliners are far safer than they were 20, even 10 years ago. I agree that if one suffered a catastrophic failure, the loss of life could be terrible but given the much stricter regulations & maintenance procedures, far fewer aircraft crash annually. Aircraft size has, to some degree, been governed by the need to reduce planes in the sky whilst increasing passenger numbers.

@LottoWinner999 I genuinely think you're a lunatic. You spout embarrassing nonsense that indicates a staggering ignorance. You've been indoctrinated since birth to believe that the US is the best at everything; the rest of the advanced world knows this simply isn't true. I suppose when you start using childish insults (Airfags etc.) it's clear you've lost the debate, and anything additional you rant is invalid.

@TheMightyHartley I own 1500 Shares of Boeing stock + we dislike Pro-Airbus Brits, Frogs, Krauts + Nachos fools who think Airfags is number 1. Its humerous a Limey Fop like U could care for marginalised ppl cuz the only ppl left for Brtis to rip off is 3RD world nations. I know many ppl from India, Hong Kong,New Zealand, Canada + UK former colonies that despise all Brits. The Irish really despise Brits + some day soon U will have more packages for Limeys who block the unifcation of Ireland.

@LottoWinner999 I genuinely think you're borderline insane. Good luck with that (and your Boeing shares, as Airbus begins to ease ahead in the airline stakes)! I'd much rather be a 'Limey fop' than a crazed American frothing at the mouth and chasing his tail around and around and around and around. Serious question: which Brit screwed you over sooooo much that it created this whirling dervish of hate we see before us? Your issues must stem from somewhere! Don't rant - please answer seriously.

@TheMightyHartley Its U Limey Fops that R crazed + U fucked the world + addicted 1/3 of Chinas population at gunpoint by forcing the Chinese to sell opium to their people + House of Commons condemned the act. For 400 years U enslaved India, used slave labor to grow opium with addicted slaves + u murdered millions by opium addiction in China. War crimes in Ireland + Nazi Police state N North Ireland brings more shame. U created Pakistan to spite Ghandi + the 1ST Islamic A-Bomb. U Brits R Fuckups!

@LottoWinner999 LottieLoser is nicknamed "Desperate Dan" on the network. He is the laughing stock of YT, being a Class1 idiot with an amoeba for a brain. Everyone, I mean EVERYONE pulls Dan's remarks to pieces, whatever he blabs on about. As you can see, Dan's a brainless buffoon & vehement anti-Airbus fanatic. He's completely in love with Boeing & GE but I doubt he's got the intelligence to beat a 10 year old. He has no clue about engineering & specialises in making up crash stats to suit.

@TheMightyHartley Many people call Airbus Airfags and U have to admit its quite appropriate now that Airbus has started hiring Transvestite Flight Attendents. You should run down and put your politically correct application in for being a Psycho. Now what are children supposed to think when the see Airbus Tranvestite Flight Attendents? You Brits really push the envelope with human sexuality + pretty soon Airbus will have prostitutes + massage parlors for perverted deviant passengers like you!

@LottoWinner999 Wing almost cut in half? Ignorant doltish fool. They don't steal jobs, they make a good plane and US carriers buy from them. So, IDIOT, answer this question. Whats worst, this engine problem on the A380, or British Airways flight 38? To those who don't know, flight 38 was a plane crash involving a BOEING 777. Look it up on youtube or google it. Let me know your answer IDIOT.

@LottoWinner999 Oh ya, what about the Qantas BOEING 747 with the hole in the fuselage? Please tell me how Airbus is soooo bad and has substantial amounts of problems and how Boeing doesn't. Do you turn your head away from Boeing's problems? They didn't steal that air tanker business. Airbus just made a better tanker with more options than Boeing did for the same price. Sounds as if Boeing is ripping people off with their over priced planes, that is stealing.

@LandRoverWay23 If U Brits still had ur very own private airplane company U would not want foreigners building your military planes. USA does not want wine guzzling Frogs,Nazi-Krauts +Gay-Foppish Limeys like U building airpalnes 4 USAF. Boeing builds best plane + during WW2 the brave USAAF pilots N B-17 bailed Little Britain a 2ND time when Nazi Germany had U Brits by ur little balls. Its time U Airfags looks outside of the USA for job + were not giving U any more USA jobs or USA welfare checks!

@LandRoverWay23 Boeing wonTanker Contract + those R American Jobs U Brits will not get ur greedy-greasy hands on. I'll bet U Airfags were licken ur chops while drooling over 35 Billon Dollar USAF Contract. Keep on drooling cuz thats as close as U get. U know whyU lost? Boeing build a better plane with new fuel efficient GE engines that U will never get for ur copy-cat hands for ur A350 or A380. That mean U have to develop ur own technology + Boeing has exclusive contract 4 every new GE engine!

@LottoWinner999 actually rolls royce pioneer gas turbine technology namely the triple spool engine that is superior to most GE two spool designs in terms of efficiency and thrust roll royce invented the whole high bypass concept and lets not forget two europeans independently invented the jet engine in the 30s. comet was the first commercial jet Boeing just took lessoned learned from that to build their first. comments made by boeing designers stated had they being first they'd had same problems
