Boeing or Airbus - which ones would be better for the Polish Airlines (LOT)?

By the end of this year Polish Airlines LOT will get the first 3 of 8 brand new Boeing 787s with an option for an additional 6. Airbuses counterpart is the A350 which will enter service around the same time. Generally who makes better planes now, Boeing or Airbus?

LOT 787

I think Boeings tend to crash a little less often? (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though!)

PennBoy: I wasn't aware that he had any pilot on here, real pilots or pc flight simulator pilots ? LOL Oh I think that there at least 2 "wannabe pilots" !!!!on this forum. I doubt that they have ever flown an airbus, or even driven a bus for that matter.

Is he? ?????

Such a shame that Pf chose to eradicate such informative information that I posted about the RAF and the essential criteria needed to train as an RAF Pilot.

I can only assume that one is jealous that one can never ever reach that pinnacle in life.

Of course 25 years is the peak of ones career in the RAF, sometimes it is hard to acknowledge, but understandable.

Keep up those flight simulators, you can do it.

pgtx: sky is... sky gets paid for it and is competent, I just use mine to avoid the famous Central/Eastern European infrastructure. Anyway, LOT will go with whatever makes them the most on their routes. Apparently they have a pretty good relationship with Boeing for their long haul routes.

Neither - they're both so unbelievably equal. Both are subsidised in different ways by the respective authorities (Boeing with the US defence contracts, Airbus through favourable loans) and both have their lame ducks, too. The A380 has problems, the 787 has problems - the A320 is a roaring success, the 737 is likewise.

Then again - Airbus has this - http://b377.ovi.ch/pcs/guppy.jpg

Seriously, just shut up.

Convex was even kind enough to take some of my friends for a flight.

Then again, I suppose that's the old "Polish peasant jealousy complex" coming through again.
