    Two other differences not covered in here:
    1) The aft fuselage shape. The top of the fuselage on an Airbus runs level until very near the aft end, with the bottom curving up to meet it. A Boeing fuselage is more conical at the aft end, with the top curving down to meet the bottom line curving up.
    2) The dorsal fin. To distinguish the Boeing 737 from the A320 series, I’ll check for the 737’s dorsal fin on the rudder. It’s pretty distinctive.

DC 9/MD 80, 727, L1011, DC 10, 737, and 747 were all easy to tell apart for obvious reasons. Then in my college days, the MD 11 came out and those were easily distinguishable. I feel MUCH smarter about current aircraft now thanks to this video!

      A350 and 787 I seem to mix up. So was good to point out the engine cowling shape is a good way to identify when side on. Historically Boeing has had the smoother winglets like on the A350, though oddly enough the 787 is more like a birds wingtip than the winglets we've been used to seeing on a Boeing, so adding to confusion.

    Doors/exits never mentioned but probably the most important way to tell. For instance I know if I'm riding on WN's comfy, modern 737-800 if it has 2 window exits, and their cramped, dated -700 if there's just 1. It's also pretty much my only hope for telling 318, 319, 320, 321 apart.

    Thanks Joe - Interesting differences... I have one more to add from the passenger compartment. Airbus Has better fresh air exchange inside the passenger cabin. You will never smell musty "stale" air once in flight in an Airbus. I've worked in HVAC 16 years and notice this distinct difference since the very first Airbus 320.

    I live near the flight paths for SDF (Louisville KY). UPS has a LOT of traffic at that airport, and at range it's hard to tell their 767 from the Airbus model they fly. Some of the 767s have winglets, which are diagnostic, of course, but not all.
    When I worked as a ramp rat for UPS, the fleet had 727s (-100 and -200), 757s, 767 (the retrofitted winglets weren't approved yet), a flock of DC-8s (all were 70-series), and some 747-100s. All but the 757s and 767 have been mothballed, replaced with newer 747-800, MD11, Airbus, and additional 767/757 airframes.
