😅😅 13:53 13:55

[@WorldEye88]

40:11 it becomes quite evident, however that Airbus was able to come up with the A350 at a much faster pace than Boeing. Boeing had to go through a very difficult phases, during the design of the prototype and the construction of the first aircraft, and the delivery of its first aircraft. Airbus had it much more smooth. The question is what made it easier for Airbus to do it.

[@gguerra375]

The answer is the A-350 is not really a completely new design just has some composites mixed in and has about 30% less composite materials than the B-787. Thats the reason they can't touch the B-787 in performance or sales. Between the A-330 and the A-350 both only account for about 10% of the total sales of the B-787.

[@aerohk]

Airbus did not outsource the design like Boeing did.

[@OerlikonNoerd]

Airbus does a lot more of the design and assembly work inhouse. Airbus has had a decentralized network of factories and supplier networks since its inception so they have more experience building planes in that manner. Also most of airbus's suppliers are located in Europe and not spread out around the world. Additionally the A350 uses a less complex design than the 787: smaller composite panels for the fuselage instead of entire sections of autoclaved fuselage, and a more "traditional" pneumatic bleed air system vs the 787's more advanced electrical bleedless system, just to name a few

[@raymond3803]

@@gguerra375 The answer is ............ Boeing spent too much time re-branding the deadly 737. With a teeny tiny little 7, great big 3, great big 7 (that looks like a 2) Then adding a capitol "O." From a distance it looks like 320. Then maybe, just maybe, they can Jedi-Mind-Trick the public into thinking they are boarding a safe plane.

[@Shotsmoky]

Total number of 747's built, 1547. Total A 380's built, 251. Airbus got caught up in fuselage envy. Still an amazing piece of engineering!

[@joe2mercs]

The 787 was an exercise in outsourcing. It cost more than twice its predicted development budget, it was years late being launched and when it finally entered service it had safety issues that were so concerning that it was grounded pending resolution. Recently the FAA discovered issues with 787 manufacturing quality that delayed deliveries to customers until Boeing could put them right. Meanwhile Airbus built its competitor A350 aircraft largely in-house, on time, with a budget less than half that spent on the 787 and has had a flawless record of operation and production. The 787 development cost spiral, the fiasco of the 737 MAX MCAS and the massive delays to the 777X program has left scars on the confidence of Boeing management. I would not be surprised if successive management teams at Boeing milk as much money as they can out of its existing aircraft designs until the company has painted itself into a corner and is unable to finance the development of any new designs. Boeing once epitomised the ‘can do’ approach to aircraft development. No chest beating or bells and whistles Airbus is simply getting on and ‘doing it right’. Boeing has no excuses with vast amounts of tax payers money supporting its aviation design and materials R&D at NASA, a monopoly on supplying the US airforce contracts and preferential tax breaks from states in which it assembles its aircraft. Airbus has to cross every T and dot every i of a socialist European regulatory bureaucracy but the discipline of doing so has honed it into becoming the world’s largest aircraft manufacturer.

What happened to those engineers respondible for the mistake? But they fixed it,3 yrs late, which both reputation and huge amount of money. But amazing procesd of re-design.

Imagine if these two giant companies were working together instead of competing with each other the final products will be sublime to say the least!

How many extra bolt holes does it take to put a Boeing jet together in South Carolina?

Love it❤. Especially the 787-10.

Please bring back the 747 its the goated boeing aircraft.

[@irrelevant9023]

Can't wait to get mine

Try a Max. They’ll be going cheap again soon.!!

Congratulations on the 787 boeing team

[@irn2flying]

Amazing accomplishment. As a pilot of rhe 787, it's one of my favorite Boeings. Post trip recovery is night n day compared ro 767/777. Humidity n Pressure really help. It's also delightful quiet. Wish Boeing would have kept it in house for the build from the start They probably do to!

I took a flight on the Dreamliner early in its introduction, from LA to Houston. It was an amazing aircraft. But the computer glitches were scary. While taxiing and then as the plane was actually climbing into the sky, the pilot had to reset the computers a few times, and in the cabin this means computer screens and interior lighting would cycle through resets which was all kind of flickering of lights and screens. It was like a Disney light show. .. and I would still fly it any chance I can, airbus makes great planes, but the Dreamliner is just a great experience. If you go on vacation by Dreamliner, the vacation starts on the plane. All other planes just get you to the vacation spot.

Boeing had it coming, loss of JAL (Japan Airlines) as the sole brand/supplier. JAL did not change brands at the time of flight 123 crash probably because the options at the time were limited. That crash is memorable to anyone having any interest in commercials jets.

It's amazing to realize that Boeing was regularly spanked by Douglas and Lockheed until the 707. Since then their reading of the "Tea Leaves" has been nothing short of phenomenal. The Tea Leaves being market research folks. Boeing saw that the old Hub and Spoke setup was on it's way out and the need for gigantic jets to feed the hubs was dead. Airbus didn't and kept on with the then obsolescent 380. Look over to the right and the yellow and red Dash 80 the progenitor of all airliners.

[@mehrschwein7378]

because the a350 is not a thing? sorry, I'd rather not risk my life. the reports from aircraft mechanics working on these finding manufacturing defects and many boeing employees who wouldn't fly on these aircraft themselfes disagree

36:17 "we had never had our planes grounded in history" this was 3 years before MAX.

[@TinLeadHammer]

And they haven't even fixed the MAX completely.

[@txbill2512]

Haha, that's false. No chance the FAA let's the Max fly nor would the airlines fly them if they weren't "completely fixed." @@TinLeadHammer

[@TinLeadHammer]

@@txbill2512 Tons of info about it. Read Seattle Times for example. Let me quote for you: "As Boeing was transitioning from its 737 NG model to the 737 MAX, the company altered the labeling and the purpose of the stabilizer cutout switches. On the newer 737 MAX, according to documents reviewed by The Times, those two switches were changed to perform the same function - flipping either one of them would turn off all electric controls of the stabilizer. That means there is no longer an option to turn off automated functions - such as MCAS - without also turning off the thumb buttons the pilots would normally use to control the stabilizer." What does it mean? It means that if the company had maintained the switch design from the 737 NG, Boeing could have instructed pilots to simply flip the “AUTO PILOT” switch to deactivate MCAS and continue flying with the normal trim buttons on the control wheel. With the MAX wiring this is not possible. On the MAX, this wiring has not been converted to the NG setup, you can check the documents what has been fixed. They added another angle of attack sensor, they ensured both computers run simultaneously, but the switches have not been reverted to NG design. Thus, I don't fly on the MAX. I check the airline and the flight that they operate a different aircraft, even the older 737 NG is better.

Boeing what happened to your quality control and passenger safety being top priorities? From my childhood days of flying on Boeing aircraft. I've always felt so proud that America has a lead company in developing reliable and safe passenger aircraft. I trusted that Boeing would keep me and my family safe while flying on a Boeing aircraft. Today I'm very concerned and hesitant to fly Boeing with all the incidences including death because of that MCASS flight control correction system. Boeing needs to resolve these issues before they end up in bankruptcy and shut down forever.

[@imaginerc3254]

On my way to London, it was an A380. I puked most of the way because it wallowed like a cruise ship. On the way home, 787. I had never felt so comfortable on a plane in my life. The higher cabin pressure and speed made all the difference. Go Boeing!

[@johnsutcliffe3209]

Thanks for sharing this. I've been on both. The 380 made me sick too. Felt like it wasn't moving but moving at the same time. I hated it. Worst headaches I've ever had.

[@tomburke1]

I have flown on every type of Boeing aircraft since the 337 Stratocruiser. I flew BA 787 Business Class and I did not like the fact tht the window seats have the seat facing the rear. That is really a BA thing not Boeing. I have flown on most Airbus aircraft. In 3 trips on an A380 I have never felt any "wallowing" what so ever. I fly Business Class and can honestly say that the A380 is bye far the most comfortable aircraft I have ever flown on.

[@newyorkcity76]

And people died of this engineering

[@afvet5075]

Boeing is the best in the world. Over 100 years of building airplanes. They set bar. And Airbus opened their eyes on being complacent. Both are great airplanes but Boeing will never be behind 😮 in technology. As far as fuel costs, more efficiency and hedging fuel has always been Boeings trademark.

[@Jeff-sp7bg]

That's for sure lol

[@tonymurray814]

Another Boeing shill. Have u no embarrassment level.

[@jonpetter8921]

Boeing is history. Airbus is better company today. aslo the most SAFEST.

[@mehrschwein7378]

their only benefit is the purchasing cost and airbus not beeing able to manufacture more aircraft in time. Their engines are build by different companys so the fuel cost party can kinda change any minute. Also the A220 is more fuel efficient per passenger than any other boeing aircraft, I just wish they wouldn't have all these problems. The US was so scared of the A220 that they even basically banned them in the US. The main thing boeing got going for them: the agressive protective system the US put infront of boeing.

[@JohnM-ch4to]

If it's boeing, I'm not going.

The teams that worked harder than the Boeing 787 team during the development period were those Tier1 systems integrators and suppliers.
