Why is it that people think aircraft are the only machines in the world that don't occasionaly break. Every other one does, why should aircraft be different. We are kidding ourselves if we think it so.

I'ver never heard anyone say that before.

I'll be boarding two Airbus A319s tomorrow.  I guess my fate is sealed.  I hereby bequeef my collection of belly button lint and tonail clippings to FunkedUp.  You'll find it in the crawl space under my apartment, next to the jars of my urine.

they need to use better glue.

wasn't there a thread about airbus haveing a warning about moveing rudders too rapidly?

[Skydancer]

You'll be fine SOB! Now if it was McDonell Douglas, I'd run a country mile!:lol

[SOB]

Yeah right, Sky, your post doesn't even have a catchy rhyme.  I'm a goner for sure.  Either that, or Funked is retarded.

I was wondering why they always make me sit in the isle over the wings.

The composite rudder of the A310 separated over carribean sea and the Canadian plane returned to Cuba. Must have been cod's revenge.

Serve yourself...

Is there anywhere a real comparison between Airbus and Boeing with accidents/flighthour or is that "If it ain't Boeing..." just same old BS some idiots are spewing?

After that crash in that New York suburb (I think thats where it was) they blamed it on rapid movement of the rudder as the pilot was trying to gain control?  Rudder snapped and down they went.  I dunno if thats the whole story seeing asa plane CAN be flown without a rudder (B17s).  Nothing is safe though.
