I usually prefer Airbus, although when I travel I usually go on a Boeing plane.

Well I had the privilege of talking to a Boeing 787 test pilot, he said they did actual stall test on the A/C in all configurations. I flown jumpseat on both Airbus and Boeing before, I love Boeing :D. I am going to fly the real airbus A340-600 simulator next week with my flight instructor. Can't wait :D

This reminds me of a saying somebody told me once: If it ain't a Boeing, I'm not going!

I don't really have a preference over the B787/A350, mostly because I haven't actually looked in to either... lol.
Generally I prefer Boeing, I'm not really sure why though. The B738 cockpit seems much more welcoming and familiar to me :P

Ok I work on Airbus aircraft so I'm a little biased, but even before that I was always, ALWAYS an Airbus man, especially the A320 family. An old IAE-engined A320 was my very first plane. I just think that the look more elegant and smart than Boeing, and the fly-by-wire technology is simply fascinating. And as the company I work for was a firm order in for A350s that explains my choice in the poll above.

I don't know the difference, but I like the "Boeing" name because it sounds cool so I guess I will go with that :P

Even tough the a350 isn't flying commercially yet, I chose this one because the 787 is currently picking up the reputation of taking fire in mid-air. I love it's design though, and overall I would choose Boeing because of their 777s.

I love Airbus and the whole a380 double decker 'greener way to fly' thing, but I always fly on Boeing planes, and I LOVE the jumbo jet so I'm gonna stick with my buddies Boeing
