I think I was half asleep when I wrote that, fixed now.
Tupac, I automatically thought you were asking about power on, so the answer is the same.

Yeah, I was thinking most power-off stalls are pretty flat.........

I wouldn't say I don't trust AirBus, maybe their PR and sales teams as they make claims at times from their posterior or claims they blatantly know are false but will appease investors, but as a company producing a product that I might someday find myself traveling on I wouldn't refuse to board their aircraft.  Boeing, personally to me though, is the best of the best, and I feel the aircraft they have flying are some of the best of the best.  I wouldn't think twice about boarding a Boeing aircraft, and while I would also willingly fly aboard an airbus, if I had the pure preference then it would be a Boeing.  If there's one thing though more than any that I am indebt to Airbus though, finally there's someone out there to compete with Boeing and help push them along.

Mostly though because I'm such a huge Boeing fan, one thing more than any other that gets me to defend them and curse at airbus, and that's when people mistake the best for anything less or proclaim one company as the king or leader of the industry while itself is so pale, fragile and meek because it has spent its entire life shading itself comfortably in the great shadow that's cast from the proverbial rock that is Boeing.
