Is there any good one regarding to Airbus in the US?. 😀 Boeing or Airbus bashing is really boring. There a wrong attitude over there, sometimes they show a lack of generosity, in the way that they don´t admit that WE can build good planes too.
In the world there´s space for everyone.
If you pick and choose comments from the years, yes it does feed into the comforting “us vs them” mental image you seem to have of the US.
There are plenty of Airbus fans over here.
If there weren’t, there wouldn’t be so many flying for US airlines.
Most intelligent posters have never said that they don’t build good aircraft.
I’ve flown on them and I’m still here, so I have no complaints.
A lot of U.S., criticism has to do with recent management issues and trade concerns. It does look at times that the playing ground isn’t level and that too many European governments (who are large shareholders) seem to see Airbus as a public jobs program rather than a straight business proposition.
Sure there are unthinking (who come across like unsophisticated schoolboys) “experts” on both sides…and yes, Europe is far from exempt here…that seem to judge the quality of an aircraft based on its country of origin than any objective measures.
Look at the modern military thread for several hundred examples.
