As an aircraft mechanic that works 737, 787 and A320 family, I prefer working the Airbus. From a maintenance perspective, Airbus’s troubleshooting through the MCDU is much more intuitive than the 737. Also, the 737’s overhead panel looks like a dyslexic 12 year old with ADHD designed it.

As a retired Boeing Flight Analyst, I'm impressed with the accuracy of this video. The diffrences between companies may be related to philosiphy. Airbus seems to work hard to eliminate pilot error. Boeing: warn the pilot, but allow that the pilot may know something the computer doesn't such as emergency evasive manovers. Also modern Boeing airplanes do have digital checklists.

Both approaches can be valid depending on the situation. One might save the day, while the other fails and vice-versa. However, according to FAA most of the incidents are caused by human error. Some sources point to 80% human error on aircraft accidents. That easily points which is the right direction. I usually say that it would be very hard to accept any fatalities due to "computer error". ...but if the same computers, help save from the majority of the accidents, we just have to keep improving the computers and the software along with better training for the pilots, because we're also seeing pilots forgetting how to fly when the computers are not available for some reason.

I've flown both as well. For a day to day tool IMHO the A320 beats the 737 hands down. Bigger, quieter cockpit with a tray table. Much easier to fly, requiring far less pilot input. Stall protection such that Winshear and Terrain manoeuvres you get maximum performance on the edge of the envelope. Automated systems so it's much easier to configure. Autopilot rudder control enabling CAT3B to 75m RVR and yaw protection in the event of an engine failure. I agree that the 737 is more rewarding to fly, BUT if you're doing it 10 hours a day, 5 days a week then the Airbus wins hands down IMHO. Colleagues from similar backgrounds would call the 737 'The Tractor'.

My guess is that Airbus levers don’t move because it’s cheaper, less complex, and lighter to rely on detents and movement by hand. You get used to it. It only takes a couple of times of not “making a lollipop“ when disconnecting them before you remember to match the lever position with commanded engine output.]

I think it's interesting seeing the different design philosophies behind the two airframers. With Boeing the Pilot seems to be treated with a certain kind of infallibility, whilst in Airbus, sometimes it feels like the designers consider the pilots more of a liability. Obviously somewhere in between, where the humans behind the controls can bring the sort of complex problem solving skills in an emergency that a computer cannot, is desirable, and given the stellar safety record of aviation these days, I suppose both manufacturers have managed to find that balance to some degree.

Well, it’s clear which is safer. You know how many Airbus crash when the plane is in normal law? (all flight envelop protection active) Zero. All Airbus accidents happened when the plane is flying in alternate law either due to malfunctions so the plane gave back full control to the pilots, or pilot think he is smarter than computer and decided to disable the computer… didn’t turn out well. You can’t even intentionally crash an Airbus in normal law. It won’t let you do it. The suicide A320 pilot, he had to disable the computer by pull out the circuit breakers so he can fly the plane into the mountain. Also Boeing kinda already decided to go down the Airbus route and quietly adopted fly-by-wire. Newer design like 787 is fully FBW with flight envelop protection… so 🤷🏻♂️

I've been flying an airbus A320 family for a little over a year now. Never flew a Boeing but I've probably got a few hundred hours worth of jumpseat time in a 737. Flew Embraer 175's for six years. It's crazy how I've already forgotten about things like manual pitch trim. I do agree with a lot of the points you made. The lack of interconnectivity in the sidesticks sucked when I was learning how to fly the thing, particularly when flying into gusty conditions. Having that visual representation was nice and was sorely missed...I actually needed additional OE in the airbus because my landings sucked. The thrust levers not moving doesn't really bother me. They Embraer had autothrottles that moved but at times they were completely stupid and I'd have to override them. Never had a problem with the autothrust in the Airbus. But for me, the pilot comfort of an airbus covers a multitude of sins. Being able to spread out, the tray table to have all my notes and everything right in front of me on the ground and to eat my crew meals in flight like a human being, taking the headset off in cruise, all of that is worth the faults of the Airbus. When I started with my current airline I was based in NYC and often did transcon flights to LA and San Francisco in an Airbus. In the winter, going from NYC to LA was like 6 hours. You can do 6 hours in an Airbus A321 cockpit no problem. I could not imagine doing it in a 737 cockpit.

The workload in the Boeing is simply higher, Airbus because it’s less workload provides greater time for the pilot to work through failures. Which in turn makes its safer. When we are comparing a 60s designed aircraft to an 80s designed aircraft there really isn’t any comparison. The yolk connection argument and throttles moving argument has been used for years by Boeing pilots and fan boys, but in reality it comes down to what you are accustomed too and embracing a change. There is no advantage other than what you put in your own mind. Airbus wins for me all day.

( a CRJ has a roll rate of 140 der./ sec !!) so when a real PILOT ( not a airplane operator)try to fly this airbus , it’s gettin worse . They are so many mishaps with airbus ! EMB 170-195 , Boing 777 etc. they all have fly by wire with simultaneous moving thrust levers and control yoke’s . The computers only prevent tail strikes ( TO,LDG) stalls but they let the PILOTS fly the plane !!! Fore example , on a A340 , airbus wanted to build a plane without QRH ( norm,abnorm emergency checklists) the ECAM should cover everything ! In the end the QRH was so thick , it didn’t fit in airplane holder !!!! As a airplane operator or license holder ( office)you should fly a airbus and stay on the ground if it’s very gusty !.

All this to say: in my point of view, everything that can simplify the work of the pilots is welcomed. Especially for short haul ones, that have to get through checklist multiple times a day.

Over my Career I was fortunate to fly Lockheed Douglas Bombardier Boeing and Airbus. Many 1000s of hours on Airbus and Boeing. I much prefer the newer Boeing aircraft. In my opinion the design is superior as is the handling. The Widebody Boeings have gigantic cockpits. The Auto flight systems are more straight forward and the moving throttles are essential to good situation awareness. Remember the basics. Attitude and Power are the basics of Instrument flying. With Boeing you always know immediately what your engines are up to. My favorite aircraft is the 767 ... with the 777 300ER and 200 LR close behind. Just one guys opinion. If your just out of training on Airbus it is a more confusing aircraft until you learn all the gotchas.

Let's look at comparable models, that being Boeing 737 and Airbus A320. End of August 2023, Boeing has delivered 11.535 737s, and end of June 2023 Airbus has delivered 10.948 A320. So in both cases we have statistically relevant sizes. Looking at incidents with total write-offs we see these figures: Model Incidents Fatalities Boeing 737 215 5633 Airbus A320 40 1128 Looking at these numbers it is safe to say that an Airbus A320 is 5 times (!!!) safer than a Boeing 737. That said, I rest my case.

Whilst I prefer Airbus, You forgot some important information.... The 737 entered service in 1968 The Airbus A320 entered service in 1988 So the 737 has been flying for 20 years longer. And then when you factor in lessons learnt over that period, the different time periods, the huge focus on safety these days etc. It isn't surprising that the A320 has the better record.

To be fair, the blue lights on the 737 overhead only light up when something is available (gens) or a valve is in the open position, which when I flew the E jet would display an EICAS message saying the valve was open. Everything else (besides the window heat for some reason) was dark during normal ops.

From your experience, it sounds like that Boeing (at least with the older planes) seemed to be a more "pilot-ly" maker, whereas Airbus cares more about making the flying experience and "idiot-proof". A bit like the difference between driving a stick-shift car vs. automatic transmission, which has a major difference in driver experience and connection with the car (these days with electric cars you can't even HEAR your own car).

I know the 767 cockpit has a ton of room, especially the freight variant which has 4 nice jumpseats and a galley with room to walk between. The freight galley is basically a coffee machine countertop and an ice chest, but with plenty of room to stretch and take a few steps. (767 is an equiv size aircraft to an A330.) The non-physical airbus control issues you mentioned were a major contributing factor in the loss of AF447. The French investigation mostly ignored this to protect Airbus from a major redesign issue (a big part of France's economy) but it is pretty clear when you review the data and cockpit transcripts.

If you're just an enthusiast I urge you to stay in your lane. Based on your statement, I gather that you have no real information about the issues the befell the MAX early on. With that as my operating premise, I will tell you that there was never, ever anything wrong with that airplane, either of them. The simple act of flipping either one of two switches would have rendered the stab trim powerless, thus allowing the aircraft to climb out and resume it's normal flight profile...it's not even a maintenance write up. In one instance, the company told the mechanic working on a similar issue the night before, to disable a safety feature in the aircraft in order to expedite the availability of the aircraft. In the other instance, underqualified flight crewmembers didn't follow the QRH. Boeing took the high road on both issues...there was never any problem with the airplane that basic airmanship couldn't overcome. All companies are profit driven, otherwise they wouldn't be in business.

@@jeremyelford7926 You clearly don't know enough about the topic and I suggest you read more about it. Boeing was indeed cutting a lot of corners with the MAX and yes, there were some serious wrong things about that aircraft. It's an old cables and pulleys old bucket, not one where we feel comfortable introducing computer flight envelope changes. Not on an aircraft that basically uses a single computer on each flight. ...much less, computer operation based on a single AOA sensor. If the sensor failed, as it did, there was no redundancy. The MAX was a perfectly fine aircraft if they didn't introduced MCAS to avoid new type certification for the pilots, basically for commercial reasons, not security. It seems you also expected the pilots to disconnect the automatic trim as if they knew about the MCAS, something Boeing failed to mention. ...and that's assuming it's normal that a plane suddenly decides to dive and if the pilots don't avoid it, the fault is on the pilots, not on the plane. The thing is, even disconnecting the auto trim as you say, we're left with manual trimming an analogue aircraft where the forces can be very high on the surfaces. And in fact, on the Ethiopian accident, the pilots did switched off the the auto trim ...just to find out they weren't able to trim it manually. ...so they switch on the electric trim assistance again ...and the MCAS came up again ...and we know the rest. Now, after the FAA forced changes, the 737 MAX is the first 737 operating two computers simultaneously for the needed MCAS redundancy. Just out of curiosity, Airbus uses 7 flight computers on the 320 family since the late 80s.

I've seen raw data on both incidents, and there was no condition on either plane that would've rendered the aircraft unsafe. Poor management in one case and poor airmanship in the other... As far as all the neato computers and the bells and whistles the A320 series has, and has since 1857 or whatever you said, I'm struck by the one statistic that truly matters: the B737 is far more rugged, much easier to get off the gate in adverse conditions, and the fact that we operate in places in remote Alaska, and all of those routes are served by the Boeing 737; we tried Airbus's as far north as Fairbanks...we quickly pulled the Bus off and replaced it with a Boeing 737. At the same time, we've had Airbus's stuck in Las Vegas and Phoenix because it was too hot for them to fly.

I hate to think that each time I’m on a 737 and technical issue appears, the pilots have to pull a 1000 page book for check list and errors all while stressed out. And the simplicity of the Airbus work is really a charm. The big issue you mention, not knowing your Co-pilots inputs can be resolve with a simple display with arrows in a compass layout that shows your Co-Pilot inputs. Solves two problem.

I suppose I'm in the minority. I have flownBoeing and Airbus. I personally enjoy flying even after 37 years with my 121 carrier. In my opinion you fly a Boeing as opposed to observing the Airbus. I like situational awareness watching the power levers move and the yoke on the F/O's side move when I move mine. When I flew the A330 I had no idea what the pilot fling was doing. As a side note most guys will think I'm nuts but I can fly Boeings the same way I flew the Martins, Convairs. You can use differential thrust and do a forward slip in a crosswind. In an Airbus, the side stick controls the rate of turn, not angle of bank like a Boeing. So in the Bus you try to kick out the crab at just the right time unless you just let the airplane land in a crab. A Boeing you can actually cross control and fly the plane. Admidittedly havent flown the 73 with the curb feelers or a 74 with the outboard engines with my old techniques.

The one area that is missed is when the aircraft does something nonnormal that is not covered by the ECAM or the QRH. My example that I had happened multiple times on an Airbus was, after setting up everything correctly for a descent, at top of descent, and after pushing managed descent knob the aircraft refuses to start a descent. I have also had the side stick lock out with the auto pilot off. I was very glad after years of flying the Airbus to get back on the B737. Lastly, pilots who love the Airbus are generally those who have never had these issues, those of us who have cannot wait to get back to the Boeing.

Yes I think that is one clear cut example, had the Captain seen the yike pitched back he would have likely figured out it was a stall but first of all plenty of accidents have happened due to Boeing philosophy, such as stall, which are generally impossible in an Airbus with Alpha floor protection. And secondly those pilots... in my opinion as a Frenchman, where not very competent. Especially the FO. I mean come on. Someone who did 10 missions in FSX can tell you pulling back the stick for 3 minutes is not going to help and it was also a special circumstance because the airspeed disagree triggered alternate law and removed the stall protection, so ordinarily you couldn't stall it like that but it shows a fundamental lack of understanding of both rudder and stick skills and the aircraft systems. Aviation enthusiasts know about Airbus alternate law. An FO should really know that and you know the actual airspeed unreliable checklist is a checklist that does exist, which they failed to consult. So those guys, I'm sorry but they probably would have crashed a Boeing too. And CRM was absolutely aweful. I have heard the original French and the Captain is being exceedingly arrogant and unfriendly towards the FO and the entire crew. I mean he leaves for his break with roughly translated "Alright, I'm gonna fk off". Good CRM could have prevented this most likely. The aircraft was recoverable for most of the descent.

The fact that Boeing still uses a PHYSICAL BOOK for an emergency checklist is wild. So archaic.

The 747-8, 777, 787 and 777X have electronic checklists like Airbus and you don't need the book. Boeing was using the electronic checklist since the 777 debut in 1994. It's only the 707-737, older 747s, 757 and 767 that didn't have these where you needed the book.

I think the Boeing is much more raw and more old school fun which is suitable for short haul because the pilots do more landing and takeoffs you do in a day to day basis. However long haul pilots do less takeoff and landings and therefore prefer Airbus for comfort during cruise and more quietness in the flightdeck. In my opinion Airbus is the best commercial airliner aircraft because it is far more innovative and technologically advanced than the Boeing but for having fun and experiencing real and raw flying, Boeing wins in that regard.

But short haul also means more workload per day on the 737.

Hey Pascal ich wollte dir etwas fragen. Ich will unbedingt Pilot werden aber ich hab 3 Probleme: 1) Ich habe höhen Angst 2) Kann mich nicht konzentrieren. 3) Meine Augen sind nicht die besten auf Weitsicht. Wie kann ich das verbessern?

Fange z.b mit klettersport an und stelle dich aktiv deinen Ängsten. Punkt 2 lerne dich zu konzentrieren, baue Modelle oder such dir ein Hobby was Fokus und Konzentration fordert. Punkt 3 gehe zum Augenarzt und rede mit einem Flugmediziner.

Major differences: Airbus provides more comfort with the table tray, has more redundancy overall and fewer switches, flap settings etc. So it wins, hands down.

id love to see you get in a sim session on something like a 787 or 777 and do a good few hours in there and do a review and see how it compares to the a330 and if it could tempt you if, for example, you got the offer to fly the 787 for lufthansa, if that could sway you (like keeping everything the same as at eurowings just being lufthansa instead)

I have noticed how the A330 flexes on rough runways. I understand they are made to do this and its a good thing but its unsettling.
