I can't believe the numbers of people that say "Not fair, 737 classic vs a320, it should be 737NG" Well then, let's look at the introduction date. 737 classic introduction date = November 28, 1984 A320 introduction date = 18 April 1988 Airbus is only 4 years ahead, but if we compare the 737NG to the a320 737NG introduction date = February 9, 1997 See the huge gap? The NG is nearly 9 years ahead the A320.
Bro airbus is better then boieng in technology and pilot comfort.........have you seen the checklist on airbus is more easier and on emergency it works more better because they have to do so fast... And another and airbus is made pilot comfort on mind...
pantanakarn somboon Yes you are correct about the dates. However the 737-300,400,500 you see here is an adaption of the original 737 from 1969. The reason for the slight changes are due to ratings and regulations that would have to of been met, classing the aircraft as completely new, resulting in higher costs. Think of the A320 as a brand new aircraft, whereas the 737-3/4/5 are an 'updated variant'.
Annoying guy on internet it might have a higher bypass ratio, but the fuel burn and cost per seat is less in the MAX. Although the difference between the MAX and NEO are within 5% of each other, extremely close.
A320 looks so chill , no control column means a lot more comfort and freedom for pilots i think.. also cockpit layout looks more modernized. However i always preferred the looks of the 737
Modern commercial aviation means: Transport people and cargo from point A to point B, including safety and efficiency, nobody actually cares about showing pilot skills in 737 or not showing them in A320...both of them can suffer a lot of diferent failures that can lead to emergency situations, but still both of them are most popular aircrafts in civil aviation, if something happens, in 737 restoring the safe flight is hard to achieve, and in A320 is hard to manage. As long both of them are safe and efficient, they will stay where they belong, in sky.
The 737 has the same dimensions as it did in the 1960s, compare an a320 to a 747-400, for example, which came out around the same time, and you’ll see that the cockpits have similar amounts of room
I stand corrected. At first glance, I thought this was a new A320 cockpit. I enjoy being corrected, when I realise I'm wrong, I find it rather refreshing. It's great. Thanks. :)
+Julio Romeresto No it's definitely not. Considering Mariah and Bee's comparision, on your computer joystick you give analog movements to your computer and it is transfered into your games' movements (e.g. on flight simulators). The side stick on an airbus also reads out values but the pilot tells the aircraft, that he want it to bank left with a bank rate of let's say 3 degrees per second by moving it a certain ways to the left. centering the stick te pilot tells the aircraft to hold that position, what ever will happen and the aircraft manages its elevators, ailerons and rudder to hold that banking. same with the elevator. Also the yoke on boeings, that actually work like a joystick would theoretically allow the boeing pilot to fly loopings... you would never get an airbus into that maneuver. It just won't do it. And for a conclusion: the word "joystick" has no place on a professional flight deck :P
+Carmen Seeger both are an analog stick that give inputs to a computer. The difference in functionality lies in the computer programming itself. I think that the side stick might be built better than a lot of joysticks though.
No plane is better than another. Each one has its tricks and way make a safe flight. I began my career as pilot in 1998 as flight oficer in a Boaeing 717, after several hours of flight you knew what to do even a in a smaller cockpit than the 737.

The cockpit differences are very interesting... but Pranas is "trying to help you decide which plane to buy"... as if you are about to purchase either an A320 or a B737. :-) Get it now?
About all the comments saying the the A320 only came 4 years after the 737 classic. Yes that is true but in the era we live right now where the 737NG is the A320's main competitor, that would be the more sensible comparison. This video would make complete sense if this was 1988 and they're trying to promote the advances of the A320 cockpit compared to the 737 at that time. I just think this is a bit of an unfair comparison in today's time.
True story. I am a pilot for airbus. After high school I called airbus and asked for a job and they said "sure you can be one of our pilots. It's the easiest job in the world, you only have to sit there!" And here I am making a million bucks a year for a job where I can practically sleep all day. But my friend who applied for a job at Boeing isn't so lucky. He's still studying to become a pilot after 5 years... apparently you actually need to know how to fly when you work for them... Weird
So I want to learn how to pilot in a Boeing but want to work the rest of my life in an Airbus. I love Americans every time they feel attacked or somehting feels better than what they did: Iphones: "OMG is the best company cause everything is latest technology an automatic, nothing feels old or analogic!!!!111oneone" Airbus: "OMG That plane is such crap!! Everyhting is more advanced, nothing is analogic, what happens if all your systems shutt off, you have a hydraulic failiure AND the aliens attack you at the same time¿?¿?!!! You won't be able to recover it manually!!!"
I ain't an American but I will tell you the reason why I prefer Boeing 1. The cockpit Boeing cockpits are very easy to understand because it clearly shows what the aircraft is doing For example, the throttle, speed brakes/spoilers etc. 2. Aircraft designs/look
Hello from Canada, Pranas: I am not a pilot and never will be, but technology is & was "my bag " in another way. I am a 72 year old retired electronic technician with a lot of industrial process background, primarily at the more detailed level of debugging (>) electronic instrumentation and analyzers. I also have electrical qualifications, but no university degree, although sometimes I am called "The engineer without the degree.") I have seen a number of your videos from time to time. Well done! Some North americans might have a bit of difficulty with your parlance, as your parlence comes from your actual first language (I am thinking Russian since you are doing this from Vilnius, although I see you as more like the Russians from the Baltic states than from the rest of Russia - more interpersonal and a bit less bluntly militaristic - notably less harsh.) ( I have a friend who married a Russian from Vilnius, but both of them and the step son are now in either the U.S. or Mexico, and he is retired also.) In the video it is hard to tell just how tall you stand (thinking of the Airbus comfort) but in Feet I am thinking maybe around 6 feet (a shade less than 2M). Personally, I stand 5' 10", but younger people here of both sexes are apt to be notably taller. (I remember a young lady who was about 6'6" tall, but not abnormally proportioned for her size.) You might quip Airbus for me that a pilot would ot earn so many ""beans" if he got "beaned" on the ceiling of a Boeing cockpit, while a pilot coming out of ab anrbus might be better "beaned" with a good cup of coffee in the airport! (guffaw!)
Pranas explained what are d major diffs.hats off 2 Pranas.Of deciding which would be my fav craft,I dont have any favs.Only thing is Boeing cockpit is having too many buttons while Airbus doesnt
We can't compare the 737 Classic to the A320 because it has a similar cockpit to the 737 Original from the 60s. Boeing only upgraded the fuselage, engines, wings, etc. This was done by Boeing to reduce training costs. If you look at other Boeing planes older than the 737 Classic, like the 757 and the 767, they had glass digital displays with EICAS like the A320.
The 737 is 99.7% reliable which is much more than the a320 so that's false tho. Boeing planes are mostly made up of a new material which is more robust (but idk what you mean by that they both are) and both manufacteuers are fuel efficent. Im not a fanboy just bringing facts tho ;)
For the Qantas incidences a good one is QF32, which was a Airbus A380 and after engine #2 had caught fire and sent shrapnel hitting the plane a disabling more than 60 systems of the plane, when the huge A380 had landed engine #2 (the one that had caught on fire) wouldn't turn off, so the firefighters had to blast almost 4 tons of "anti-fire foam" (or whatever its called) into the engine. After when the plane had been rebuilt they had to completely disassemble the whole engine.
Airbus Pilot : Let's just sleep while the computer is flying the plane! Boeing Pilot : This very experiencing! You can control the plane manually showing your skills flying a plane!
Bro it's not like they do everything manually this saying was relevant 20 years ago but now with the dreamliner and 777 it's is even more easy to fly than airbus
Don't try to defend Boeing from these we all know what is airbus's reputation and what is the reputation of 737 I know Boeing is great but not it's every plane is better than airbus.
I have a friend, who hates the Sidestick in the Airbus, some People say they don't like it at the left side. Me too, until I tried to fly an Airbus A321 in the FSX, and it is superduper easy, you can do this after 2 days maximum!
Pranas, on the Boeing CL series the screens are called EFIS, and EHSI not PFD and ND,, PFD must have the altitude and the HDG and the IVSI with the Airspeed to be called Primary Flight Display.
Well, keep in mind that Airbus started as a consortium of different European aerospace manufacturers (BAe, Aérospatiale, CASA and DaimlerChrysler), all of which also had considerable experience (BAe in particular, which was the successor of Hawker Siddeley). Aérospatiale and BAC, another predecessor of BAe, also gave us Concorde, so Airbus and Boeing are pretty much on the same level as far as experience goes.
Just imagine flying a hundreds of ton of a flight machine with a joystick like a game and in the middle of the game the joystick breaks apart😂😂.... .this thought brings chills down to my spine
In an Airbus, you fly the plane (then pray that the computer can figure out how to execute what you tell it to do); in a Boeing, you move the control surfaces (then pray that it moves you to the direction you want it to go).
When the A320 was launched, it's competition was the 737 classic, so yes you can compare then. Anyway, there are few differençes between the classic 737 and the 737NG, onde of the big ones are the Glass Cockpit, which does not define if one plane is better than the other. Boeing and Airbus have different philosophys and both are great manufacturers!

@@johncarl5505 My comment is a decade old. I was literally a teenager at the time. Please don't take these things seriously. I don't have the context anymore, but saying that you can't compare airplanes that were competing in the market at the time because their cockpit is different doesn't make sense. Boeing keeping the same cockpit (as they are now with the MAX) to reduce costs is an argument in favor of what I said not the contrary...
the trim rudder control is quite awsome...in air bus....this make the pilot ....having a lot time....thinking about the cause and reamedy of the damage
That's exactly what I thought. I guess they are led, or maybe each switch/button has redundant bulbs, or maybe the aircraft maintenance procedures mandate that the bulbs be changed before they reach the end of their lifespan. But all of this are guesses of mine, I really have no idea.
@@JustRememberWhoYoureWorkingFor There's a button you click that illuminates every light in the cockpit, and checking that they all work is part of one of the checklists you do before you fly. Unless you are **very** unlucky, you'll never unknowingly be flying with a dead one.
***** you will learn it and get the right feeling in your hand. That's like eating: when you hold the fork for the first time in your left hand but after some time you get the feeling in our left hand.
Well done in the 'verses' difference of pilot usage/experience of an Airbus & Boeing awareness study. I've always liked your approach. Many aircraft manufactures have varying approaches to usage, experience, safety, information and ergonomics. Deep comfort and understanding of any system comes with unmatched experience. Bringing the best minds into the business, will only increase the awareness. Overall, an interesting approach into both and we can learn from each other, but perhaps learning from a greater pool of "end users" is the best solution. Why does an aircraft have to be so perplexing?
This isn't wrong. It's right, that technology is replacing the pilots more and more.. I would say, a glider-pilot has a very good feeling for flying a plane and how it's reacting to his controls. But in the big machines where computers and a lot of systems manage the tasks during a flight, the "pilot doesn't have to know anymore about the basics". I was talking to a psychology-expert of Lufthansa and he confirmed, the risk is growing, if systems get more complex, what's especially happening at Airbus' planes..
Zain Robson I think ultimately the winner in the long term isn't going to be about which one pilots like more, but safety and fuel economy. If more automation means better safety and economy despite the occasional lack of control, then that's what will happen. If the occasional lack of control actually causes more incidents than it's worth, then it's not going to take off. In the long run, I think automation will eventually win out, it's just a matter of when.
i was in tears laughing at all the transitions walking from room to room. wtf???? half the video is airplanes, the other half is walking back and forth 10 feet, lol
Pranas, I can almost agree with you why the Boeing is a cockpit to be desired due to pilot space. But considering your height and your stature, that should also be taken into consideration. I would think that pilots in Asia with their stature may have it a little more manageably, but the consensus I guess would be the same.
The only thing I dislike for the 737 in the cockpit is the pack of a place to write down stuff. I'd like to have something opening from the left which allows writing down stuff or even eating. As for the rest, I'm more in favor of the 737. I prefer "with wire" to "by wire". "by wire" will work well for the very large amount of the times but there's always situations when it can fail. "with wire" will always work when "by wire" works and will allow the pilots to stay up-to-date more easily on how a plane is flown. I still believe that every pilot must know how to fly in full manual. It's part of knowing how to handle the tool that was given his responsibility to.
What was shown in this video should not be taken as my preference, I just compared both of the cockpits in a few fields. It is lovely flying on both, and I do agree that things like spaciousness are not always important.
***** But when the airbuses where made it was the spring in technology so in a way its unfair to the being... but they both fly in the air so who cares right?
+Julio Romeresto What exactly makes the 777 "more advanced"? Is has the advantage of having only 2 engines which results in economical advantages (especially the 300ER vs 340-600, the 777-200ER and 340-300 aren't that much apart), that's it. On the other hand, the 2-engined version A330-300 easily outsells the 777-200(ER) because of better fuel economy.
Other than when he talks about the electronic cockpit on the airbus, vs the EFIS system on the 737, the rest of the comparisons are fair, and are the same as the NG 737's, including the auto trim, ecam, overhead panel, flight controls etc.
+Critter1 the only 737 I consider a classic jet is the original 737s with the JT8D engines and the state of the art cockpit and other technology for its time. All the rest have been playing catchup (sales have been rather close though until the neo/max battle) which shows that the design does not belong in the Renton plant, but in a museum. Real classic jets are planes like the 707, 727, 747, and 757 as they will be loved by many for good reasons for years to come and the latter of which should still be in production.
Actually Qantas operates the 737-800 and no other type. The 737-800 is apart of the 737 Next Generation and was made in 1992. Qantas's 738's average 9.7 years which is young for most aircraft compared to their 747-400 Fleet which averages 17.1 Years. Qantas shows no sign of retiring their 738s.
Fly the boeing over the scarebus any day. I prefer to put in my own inputs and not have them overided by a computer. Also I want to feel what the plane is doing the yoke has the shaker for when you stall and you can feel tension in the side stick not so much.
A silly comment - none of the aircraft are the problem. The training and airmanship usually are. Besides, I wonder how many people would have survived in a B737 when Sullenberger ditched in the Hudson. The avionics would not allow his a/c to stall and kept him on the optimum glide path and glide speed for a dead stick landing. A 737 (even the lastest ones) wouldn't. Plenty of opportunity to get things wrong.
bigsky1970 You can always degrade to direct or alternative law in the airbus. And if you loose control of the surfaces or engines you are quite correct. But there is where redundancy comes into place. If you loose control mechanically or electronically/mechanically you are in a big hurt either way. I believe we (including I) tend to put too much focus on the *appearance* of sefety rather than what the numbers tell us.
If you lose the engines you have no power the RAT deploys to provide basic hydraulics and back up power to some displays. Sullenburger started up the APU and was able to still use all the systems. I was discussing control with a 777 pilot that used to fly A340s a while back and he said that there is no difference in safety but the style of flying is slightly different. Ultimately a pilot still has to be a pilot and put into practice their most basic training that they had learnt in that little Cessna they used at the start of their career. Actually fly the plane. Any sensor in ANY aircraft could get blocked, fail to work and provide erroneous data to the flight computers (yes even Boeing has gone FBW) and make it do weird things but it is how you react to the problem which is what really counts. in AF447's case, they failed to do the basics - had they kept the a/c at level flight nothing would have happened. By the way the A340 has never had hull loss or fatalities due to air accident (although some idiot managed to taxi one into the side of an aircraft hangar) - Does that make it a dangerous a/c to fly?

@@vishalgiraddi5357 they want a challenge
@J C Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@J C to add, the flight sim looks badly dated and is getting old and rusty. In another vid, they have a new cockpit that looks way better.
Give my man props for walking to each simulator to show differences
About all the comments saying the the A320 only came 4 years after the 737 classic. Yes that is true but in the era we live right now where the 737NG is the A320's main competitor, that would be the more sensible comparison. This video would make complete sense if this was 1988 and they're trying to promote the advances of the A320 cockpit compared to the 737 at that time. I just think this is a bit of an unfair comparison in today's time.
It just goes to show how outdated the 737 classic was right from the start.
But the a320 is Still better than a 737NG
let's say we are going to compare the 737ng to the a320neo then !!!
+femipieds paluches But the A320neo competes with the 737 MAX.
yeah, but this is not 737 max
True story. I am a pilot for airbus. After high school I called airbus and asked for a job and they said "sure you can be one of our pilots. It's the easiest job in the world, you only have to sit there!" And here I am making a million bucks a year for a job where I can practically sleep all day. But my friend who applied for a job at Boeing isn't so lucky. He's still studying to become a pilot after 5 years... apparently you actually need to know how to fly when you work for them... Weird
So I want to learn how to pilot in a Boeing but want to work the rest of my life in an Airbus.
I love Americans every time they feel attacked or somehting feels better than what they did:
Iphones: "OMG is the best company cause everything is latest technology an automatic, nothing feels old or analogic!!!!111oneone"
Airbus: "OMG That plane is such crap!! Everyhting is more advanced, nothing is analogic, what happens if all your systems shutt off, you have a hydraulic failiure AND the aliens attack you at the same time¿?¿?!!! You won't be able to recover it manually!!!"
I ain't an American but I will tell you the reason why I prefer Boeing
1. The cockpit
Boeing cockpits are very easy to understand because it clearly shows what the aircraft is doing
For example, the throttle, speed brakes/spoilers etc.
2. Aircraft designs/look
I think people choose iPhone to just show off or something, I am an Android user because
1. It's cheap
2. Pretty advanced
@@sideyoke1476I agree
Literally no American has said that
Very clear differentiation pranas 👍
I vote airbus due to its comfortability, reliability and very easy to learn controls.
Hello from Canada, Pranas:
I am not a pilot and never will be, but technology is & was "my bag " in another way.
I am a 72 year old retired electronic technician with a lot of industrial process background, primarily at the more detailed level of debugging (>) electronic instrumentation and analyzers.
I also have electrical qualifications, but no university degree, although sometimes I am called "The engineer without the degree.")
I have seen a number of your videos from time to time. Well done!
Some North americans might have a bit of difficulty with your parlance, as your parlence comes from your actual first language (I am thinking Russian since you are doing this from Vilnius, although I see you as more like the Russians from the Baltic states than from the rest of Russia - more interpersonal and a bit less bluntly militaristic - notably less harsh.)
( I have a friend who married a Russian from Vilnius, but both of them and the step son are now in either the U.S. or Mexico, and he is retired also.)
In the video it is hard to tell just how tall you stand (thinking of the Airbus comfort) but in Feet I am thinking maybe around 6 feet (a shade less than 2M). Personally, I stand 5' 10", but younger people here of both sexes are apt to be notably taller. (I remember a young lady who was about 6'6" tall, but not abnormally proportioned for her size.)
You might quip Airbus for me that a pilot would ot earn so many ""beans" if he got "beaned" on the ceiling of a Boeing cockpit, while a pilot coming out of ab anrbus might be better "beaned" with a good cup of coffee in the airport! (guffaw!)
I love airbus A320 ! It's the best plane ever !

Thank you Pranas,wonderful video where are u now.Your teaching is very nice
Wirklich sehr interessant. Sehr gut gemacht.
Pranas explained what are d major diffs.hats off 2 Pranas.Of deciding which would be my fav craft,I dont have any favs.Only thing is Boeing cockpit is having too many buttons while Airbus doesnt
Screw BOTH Airbus and Boeing. I WANT MY MD-80 BACK!!!!!
me too
but boeing made it
*****
Except that McDonnell-Douglas made the MD-80.
I like the MD-80 better than the 737 myself. I think the DC9 platform was much better and much more reliable.
Anthony DeBacker if you want to die...
Love the throbbing electronic music whenever Pranas moves between the simulators...he must be tired lol
I used to be more of a 737 fan, I changed my mind after watching this
Joseph Mascolino may favorite old plane is the Boeing 747 because it’s big
We can't compare the 737 Classic to the A320 because it has a similar cockpit to the 737 Original from the 60s. Boeing only upgraded the fuselage, engines, wings, etc. This was done by Boeing to reduce training costs. If you look at other Boeing planes older than the 737 Classic, like the 757 and the 767, they had glass digital displays with EICAS like the A320.
really enjoyed this, i have no aspirations to become a pilot but found it fascinating ,thank you
Great video from Baltic, thank you Pranas!
Still wont ever get me on an Airbus though. 737NG is the only option.
Fricc you boeing fan
@@dappingforever7720 yeah, you’re just a Boeing hater as seen from your previous comments in this video
Another Boeing fan 🤦♂️
Thanks for sharing, I've always been a big fan of Airbus!
He must have had a good workout!!..
This video of yours is brilliant! I'm not a pilot but from what I see the A320 is more modern while the 737 is more old school.
Air bus for definitely. Much convenient , reliable , safer , robust and fuel efficient.
Exactly. Well said
The 737 is 99.7% reliable which is much more than the a320 so that's false tho. Boeing planes are mostly made up of a new material which is more robust (but idk what you mean by that they both are) and both manufacteuers are fuel efficent. Im not a fanboy just bringing facts tho ;)
Flipping the overhead switches really makes you feels like a professional
I spend my entire life in seeing that boi going from one sim to the other 🤔🤔🤔
I LOVE YOU, PRANAS!!!!! 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Airbus Cockpit Seems much spacier and comfortable
For the Qantas incidences a good one is QF32, which was a Airbus A380 and after engine #2 had caught fire and sent shrapnel hitting the plane a disabling more than 60 systems of the plane, when the huge A380 had landed engine #2 (the one that had caught on fire) wouldn't turn off, so the firefighters had to blast almost 4 tons of "anti-fire foam" (or whatever its called) into the engine. After when the plane had been rebuilt they had to completely disassemble the whole engine.
I would have LOVED to attend BAA, but don't have the money. Sad face. They seem like an awesome aviation institution!
I don't know why but the walking was really cracking me up! Nice video anyway, thank you. Although on the airbus, it's a side-stick not a joystick. :)
Love how he runs between cockpits lol. On a serious note good job . My type is going to be on either of the types soon.
the boeing 737 NG also has an autotrim feature, you can select it at the autopilot section.
nice video. goes straight to my favorits!
I know why I would prefer Airbus. It's simply better thought trough. Even compared to the new 737's
They do, it is shown on their channel.
Airbus Pilot : Let's just sleep while the computer is flying the plane!
Boeing Pilot : This very experiencing! You can control the plane manually showing your skills flying a plane!
Bro it's not like they do everything manually this saying was relevant 20 years ago but now with the dreamliner and 777 it's is even more easy to fly than airbus
yeah, like what? doing barrel rolls with a 737?
Boot
Don't try to defend Boeing from these we all know what is airbus's reputation and what is the reputation of 737 I know Boeing is great but not it's every plane is better than airbus.
@KENNETH NDIRANGU B737 MAX so......still think the same now? Pitch stability augmentation system killed 157 + 189
I have a friend, who hates the Sidestick in the Airbus, some People say they don't like it at the left side. Me too, until I tried to fly an Airbus A321 in the FSX, and it is superduper easy, you can do this after 2 days maximum!
Not at all boeing 737 classic is analog, but the boeing 737 NG has more electronics instruments
But airbus has more comfort and bigger
@@kreselletoursabello8033 is comfort everything?
Than what? Is 737NG everything??
Comfort help a lot for pilots. You wouldn't want an exhausted uncomfortable pilot flying your plane.
Pranas, on the Boeing CL series the screens are called EFIS, and EHSI not PFD and ND,,
PFD must have the altitude and the HDG and the IVSI with the Airspeed to be called Primary Flight Display.
So! I see Airbus 320 is more comfortable than Boeing 737.
You probably get more exercise this way than by flying!!! Good one and useful, thanks I subscribed!
take note they show you a 737 300/400 the newer 737 ,700,800,900 have a all glass cocpit
Ok,they have only glass cockpit but they can't defeat airbus from any side!
Well, keep in mind that Airbus started as a consortium of different European aerospace manufacturers (BAe, Aérospatiale, CASA and DaimlerChrysler), all of which also had considerable experience (BAe in particular, which was the successor of Hawker Siddeley). Aérospatiale and BAC, another predecessor of BAe, also gave us Concorde, so Airbus and Boeing are pretty much on the same level as far as experience goes.
I like Airbus the most because it is less confusing and also more comfortable!
Just imagine flying a hundreds of ton of a flight machine with a joystick like a game and in the middle of the game the joystick breaks apart😂😂.... .this thought brings chills down to my spine
Most pilots prefer Boeing over Airbus because you actually pilot the aircraft.
You dont get it. This is the old 737, the 737-300-400-500.
The newest 737´s are also fly by-wire. So no difference.
Most pilots don't give a shit what they fly as long as they get paid.
tanshaomala lmaooo
In an Airbus, you fly the plane (then pray that the computer can figure out how to execute what you tell it to do); in a Boeing, you move the control surfaces (then pray that it moves you to the direction you want it to go).
WhosJePP what do you mean by "fly by wire"
is really necessary to show the guy walking back and forth between simulators. I think it quite evident which cockpit sim is which.
7:46 That's what clipboards are for...
Not quite a suitable angle
It’s for reference charts only
When the A320 was launched, it's competition was the 737 classic, so yes you can compare then. Anyway, there are few differençes between the classic 737 and the 737NG, onde of the big ones are the Glass Cockpit, which does not define if one plane is better than the other. Boeing and Airbus have different philosophys and both are great manufacturers!
We can't compare the 737 Classic to the A320 because it has a similar cockpit to the 737 Original from the 60s.

@@johncarl5505 My comment is a decade old. I was literally a teenager at the time. Please don't take these things seriously.
I don't have the context anymore, but saying that you can't compare airplanes that were competing in the market at the time because their cockpit is different doesn't make sense. Boeing keeping the same cockpit (as they are now with the MAX) to reduce costs is an argument in favor of what I said not the contrary...
3:30 the red switch is used to release chem trails, since he didn't tell you.
this is autopilot not chemtrails....
Giovanni Di Cello Plus Chemtrails don't really exist. Planes can dump chemicals but no airline or military allows it
Its an auto pilot disconnect button watch it on captain joe
captain joe all the way. also its the autopilot disconnect please dont let me ever get on a plane with you at the controls
everyone who replied to this comment gets a r/wooosh
the trim rudder control is quite awsome...in air bus....this make the pilot ....having a lot time....thinking about the cause and reamedy of the damage
"You can just watch the switch to see if its in wrong position." But what if the light is broken?
That's exactly what I thought. I guess they are led, or maybe each switch/button has redundant bulbs, or maybe the aircraft maintenance procedures mandate that the bulbs be changed before they reach the end of their lifespan. But all of this are guesses of mine, I really have no idea.
@@JustRememberWhoYoureWorkingFor There's a button you click that illuminates every light in the cockpit, and checking that they all work is part of one of the checklists you do before you fly. Unless you are **very** unlucky, you'll never unknowingly be flying with a dead one.

Hahahah
Very nice video, simply and objective!
UAUH!How many kg you missed going to the Airbus from Boeing
Well done in the 'verses' difference of pilot usage/experience of an Airbus & Boeing awareness study. I've always liked your approach. Many aircraft manufactures have varying approaches to usage, experience, safety, information and ergonomics. Deep comfort and understanding of any system comes with unmatched experience. Bringing the best minds into the business, will only increase the awareness. Overall, an interesting approach into both and we can learn from each other, but perhaps learning from a greater pool of "end users" is the best solution. Why does an aircraft have to be so perplexing?
Boeing 737 classic? what kind of compairison is this old vs new? whats next Floppy drives vs thumb drives??
both aircraft came out around the same time
737 (1967) A320 (1987) in plane years that a long time. but beside the cockpits..they both are great aircraft.
Lee Kenney The JURASSIC came out in 67 on the classic the classics first flight was in 84
737 classic first flew in 84
Lee Kenney don't know anything about aviation....
you would be right if this was a contest, but he is not trying to determine a winner here. he is just showing us the differences between the 2 models
now i know why a320 has such a good safety record and why it is the best selling airline. no wonder b737 has had so many accidents
Oooh Pranas you did a lot of walking to and fro!😁😁😁
I'd prefer Airbus.
You don't say, AirBusFreak757, you don't say...
keep in mind that the 737 cockpit seen here is much older than the NG series operated by carriers today
air bus relays too much on technology. piolts forget how to actually fly a plane
This isn't wrong. It's right, that technology is replacing the pilots more and more..
I would say, a glider-pilot has a very good feeling for flying a plane and how it's reacting to his controls. But in the big machines where computers and a lot of systems manage the tasks during a flight, the "pilot doesn't have to know anymore about the basics".
I was talking to a psychology-expert of Lufthansa and he confirmed, the risk is growing, if systems get more complex, what's especially happening at Airbus' planes..
super20dan And you've forgot how to spell Pilot
BARRYDOBEN AVIATION when the computer fails, the pilots will think it's doing its job and will think the plane is doing ok when it isn't
Try landing one boy 😉
Zain Robson I think ultimately the winner in the long term isn't going to be about which one pilots like more, but safety and fuel economy. If more automation means better safety and economy despite the occasional lack of control, then that's what will happen. If the occasional lack of control actually causes more incidents than it's worth, then it's not going to take off. In the long run, I think automation will eventually win out, it's just a matter of when.
i was in tears laughing at all the transitions walking from room to room. wtf???? half the video is airplanes, the other half is walking back and forth 10 feet, lol
Couldn't you choose an older 737?......
Nah - The 737CL first flight was in 1967, while the '320 was in '87.
I stand corrected, sorry.
''Still is''
Not really.
there is only one order for the a380. While the 787 is going out like fresh baked cookies.
So I'd say boeing is now ahead.
First of all, there is more than one order. But also, while they are both long range aircraft, they are built for very different purposes.
Right now after the battery fires in 787 there's more A350 orders than for 787
Pranas, I can almost agree with you why the Boeing is a cockpit to be desired due to pilot space. But considering your height and your stature, that should also be taken into consideration. I would think that pilots in Asia with their stature may have it a little more manageably, but the consensus I guess would be the same.
I"m now a professional cat walker :)
The only thing I dislike for the 737 in the cockpit is the pack of a place to write down stuff. I'd like to have something opening from the left which allows writing down stuff or even eating.
As for the rest, I'm more in favor of the 737. I prefer "with wire" to "by wire".
"by wire" will work well for the very large amount of the times but there's always situations when it can fail.
"with wire" will always work when "by wire" works and will allow the pilots to stay up-to-date more easily on how a plane is flown.
I still believe that every pilot must know how to fly in full manual. It's part of knowing how to handle the tool that was given his responsibility to.
I have -1 power in left eye and -1.25 in right will there be problems for me becoming a commercial pilot? And also if I do LASIK treatment?

What was shown in this video should not be taken as my preference, I just compared both of the cockpits in a few fields. It is lovely flying on both, and I do agree that things like spaciousness are not always important.
737 is a good one but A320 is the best plane in the world!!!

What do you like most??????
How much did Airbus pay BAA to produce this video to make boe ing look bad? If you do a comparison do it right and not the Airbus way.
+Fred Brull Also put the airbus against a plane that it's actually competitive against... EXP. 738 NG or 7379NG vs A320
I think airbs is better but its thrust isn t good.
***** But when the airbuses where made it was the spring in technology so in a way its unfair to the being... but they both fly in the air so who cares right?
No need, the reality already hurts Boeing.
+Cory Huff those have essentially the same problems as the 737 classic though. Only a few of the issues were fixed.
ok how about comparing a B777 and a A340 fair enough isn't it
Well that would just show how much more advanced the 777 is.
+Julio Romeresto What exactly makes the 777 "more advanced"? Is has the advantage of having only 2 engines which results in economical advantages (especially the 300ER vs 340-600, the 777-200ER and 340-300 aren't that much apart), that's it. On the other hand, the 2-engined version A330-300 easily outsells the 777-200(ER) because of better fuel economy.
+Julio Romeresto are u joking me?
I think a350 would me better
Bruno Soares you mean 787 and A350 right, cause both of them are the latest
Other than when he talks about the electronic cockpit on the airbus, vs the EFIS system on the 737, the rest of the comparisons are fair, and are the same as the NG 737's, including the auto trim, ecam, overhead panel, flight controls etc.
Boeing 737 all the way!
Thank you!! Finally someone who likes a classic jet!!
+Critter1 the only 737 I consider a classic jet is the original 737s with the JT8D engines and the state of the art cockpit and other technology for its time. All the rest have been playing catchup (sales have been rather close though until the neo/max battle) which shows that the design does not belong in the Renton plant, but in a museum. Real classic jets are planes like the 707, 727, 747, and 757 as they will be loved by many for good reasons for years to come and the latter of which should still be in production.
+Take Flight The 737 ng seat belt signs look very old and boeing is too lazy to make the smoking sign light up.The 737 I took was on Qantas
+caden phua I hope you know that Quantas' 737's are REALLY old and will be retired soon. Boeing is not lazy, its just the wear of the plane.
Actually Qantas operates the 737-800 and no other type. The 737-800 is apart of the 737 Next Generation and was made in 1992. Qantas's 738's average 9.7 years which is young for most aircraft compared to their 747-400 Fleet which averages 17.1 Years. Qantas shows no sign of retiring their 738s.
The cockpit of the A320 is the same of the A319 and the A321. You can choose in the computer witch one you want to fly.
Fly the boeing over the scarebus any day. I prefer to put in my own inputs and not have them overided by a computer. Also I want to feel what the plane is doing the yoke has the shaker for when you stall and you can feel tension in the side stick not so much.
A silly comment - none of the aircraft are the problem. The training and airmanship usually are. Besides, I wonder how many people would have survived in a B737 when Sullenberger ditched in the Hudson. The avionics would not allow his a/c to stall and kept him on the optimum glide path and glide speed for a dead stick landing. A 737 (even the lastest ones) wouldn't. Plenty of opportunity to get things wrong.
"scarebus" really makes you sound like an expert, good thing
Fly-by-wire might be nice but the pilot has very little control of the Airbus.
bigsky1970 You can always degrade to direct or alternative law in the airbus. And if you loose control of the surfaces or engines you are quite correct. But there is where redundancy comes into place. If you loose control mechanically or electronically/mechanically you are in a big hurt either way. I believe we (including I) tend to put too much focus on the *appearance* of sefety rather than what the numbers tell us.
If you lose the engines you have no power the RAT deploys to provide basic hydraulics and back up power to some displays.
Sullenburger started up the APU and was able to still use all the systems.
I was discussing control with a 777 pilot that used to fly A340s a while back and he said that there is no difference in safety but the style of flying is slightly different. Ultimately a pilot still has to be a pilot and put into practice their most basic training that they had learnt in that little Cessna they used at the start of their career. Actually fly the plane.
Any sensor in ANY aircraft could get blocked, fail to work and provide erroneous data to the flight computers (yes even Boeing has gone FBW) and make it do weird things but it is how you react to the problem which is what really counts.
in AF447's case, they failed to do the basics - had they kept the a/c at level flight nothing would have happened.
By the way the A340 has never had hull loss or fatalities due to air accident (although some idiot managed to taxi one into the side of an aircraft hangar) - Does that make it a dangerous a/c to fly?
