Yes because American (Boeing, MD) merged with Airways (Bus).   And Continental (Boeing) merged with United (Boeing, Bus).

It was NOT an indigenous choice. 

737 > A320

Irrelevant. There are more than a thousand A320 family aircraft operating in North America and no fatal accidents. American Airlines Flight 587 that you mentioned is in fact the only fatal accident of any Airbus type ever in North America. And it was an old non-FBW A300.

Duh.

I guess you missed my mention of it as a 300. 


 Look Bubba, I have five jet types and over 10,000 hours in turbojets.    I didn't fall off a stump yesterday.   


Again.  Airbus sucks.  Thankfully you guys kill people outside the U.S.      I won't fly a Bus. 

They crash plenty.  Where they crash is irrelevant.


But again. I shot you down with facts and you do this.     :bolt:

You seem to be a bit confused as to what constitutes a "fact". But that's ok. :)
