By looking at this vid, I assume there was some severe cross winds ... Look at how the pilot uses rudder pedals ... Astonishing !


And there you have it. . . . now, just using rudder pedels is Astonishing! First a big airplane and now. . . . rudder pedels. Poor Boeing doesn't have a chance.

Status: offline 		Don't want ot get into the Airbus/Boeing controversy here, IMHO enough really stupid comments/arguments have been made by both camps.

Just one thing though :
Some of you keep arguing about wether the A380 or the 787 are the new "big boy on the block", who will "kick the other's butt".....
I think this is just silly since the 2 airplanes are in totally different categories, and can't be compared to each other.
787 : 2 engines, 290-330 pax, A380 : 4 engines , 550 - 800 (?) pax, etc. , etc.

The only thing these 2 have in common is the air through which they will fly.

Exactly its been made look like only one aircraft and so only one company can be succesful but they both have scope to be very succesful aircraft.

It's French.

It goes backwards quite well.

As the name indicates -- I'm Boeing qualified......and wouldn't trade seats on any French creation for any reason.

Period.

Virgin atlantic has already ordered 6 of these planes and plane to install private bedrooms so people can join the mile high club instead of having to use one of the tiny bathrooms
You aint got a hair one unless you've done it in the back of a 172!

Do you think you french experts can keep the vertical stabilizers from falling off these new ones, without some BS attempt at blaming the pilots with some excuse as lame as "excessive rudder inputs"?


Just as much as US engineers can keep the tails from falling off... :
