    For me the difference is there service history
    The 737 has a bad reputation from its early history and is considered one of the most dangerous planes to fly on, the max 8 variant is no exception
    As for the A320 also has plenty of crashes but isn’t that bad as the 737’s history

  • @GeorgeCatcher

    Airbus has it's double strobe, while Boeing - single one lol : )) Also I heard that Boeing and Airbus has totally different approach to wing design. Airbus has much heavier and tough wing which makes Airbus feels great on takeoff and landings. While Boeing has light and flexible wing, which have most advantages on cruise flight. But they had to create additional controlling surfaces called flaperons to help aircraft maneuver on low speeds.

    As a Boeing lover I must say that the 747 is probably the most iconic airplane in modern history it has been featured in a lot of films but not just that I have read that Airbus 380 is getting outphased because of it's size and the logistics of operating it like special things at airports I remember they had to land one here in Las Vegas just to test if the runway would fit it.

    Too easy. We all can. Well, those of us who have loved aviation since we were 5 years old. You should explain spotting the difference between an MD11 and a DC-10... some level of difficulty. 737s have a Boeing nose that it closely shares with 707, 720, and 727. It can be seen miles away.
