Airlines, Airplanes, Airports

Boeing and Airbus. 787 and A380. Which one is better and why? Are they even comparable? What is better, distant or range? You decide.

So a remember when I was eight a concept for a double deck plane was thought of by Airbus. I was thrilled, I couldn’t believe that they were lifting 600 people into the air with four engines. Anyways a few years later Boeing came out with a much smaller plane but had a quote that caught my eyes. “This plane will connect any two cities in the world.” Both great planes but who wins, the amount of passengers or the distance. The 787’s range is from 8000-9000 nautical miles whereas the A380 is 8200. So in my opinion the A380 wins. It might fly less but it carries way more passengers. So I guess it is more efficient.

So in the end it isn’t comparable because lets say the A380 is not full most of the time then the 787 wins because the amount of passengers you are carrying is the same. Finally I would take any plane home…apart the fact that it costs a couple of million (A380 is 300 million and 787 120 million) they are both excellent planes but the A380 is better for bigger airlines whereas the 787 for smaller ones. I would prefer the 787 because that quote is beautiful.
