Good old Rolls Royce quality engineering

That was caused by volcanic ashes from an eruption below flight 009.

This was not a plane crash.

"im really good for a cold soda!" somehow i cant imagine a BA pilot coming out with that.

These US TV companies really ought to research other countries cultures more

Sounds like they were attacked by H.A.A.P.

man don't pay attention to people like that , they forgot that boeing company is way older then airbus , and because of that its normal they had more challanges or maybe accedints then airbus , they are the first and the best in the making of commercail jets

hmmm??

if boeing is crap then why are 3/4 airlinrs in the sky boeings

o well i guess the airlines dont kno what they want in a plane huh?

[cjracer1000]

well those numbers are inaccurate unless you start the date at a certain time and end it at a certain time 737 has had a longer time in service

i think you should start the counting of the deaths at the same time that the a32x came out then count that

otherwise it is completely inaccurate

and

when the 737 came out first it was made with the technology of that time time

"I don't know how to swim!"

If that's what you're worried about when you might possibly hurdle into the mountains at 500mph, then you have seriously misplaced priorities.

As for air safety, the last time an A330 crashed, it was blown up by the US navy. An Air Transat A330 glided 130 miles to an Air Force base in the middle of the Atlantic. An Air France A340 overran the runway at Toronto Pearson, completely broke up, all 309 passengers and crew alive.
