Boeing 787 Or Airbus A350?

Aviation Games Debating
72

BECAUSE IT IS

73

It most definitely is not the 787,especially the 78X

74

Who says A350 doesn’t have upward flex
:rage:

75

When Airbus couldn’t afford to make the A350-800 to compete with Boeing’s 787-8 because it wouldn’t be as successful

bear in mind the 787 entered service earlier

And that the A330ceo isn’t terribly old. Came out at about the same time as the 777.

I was talking about the NEO

83

Different aircraft
They weren’t built to compete with the 787

84

I know. I was saying that neo orders aren’t super high because the A330ceo isn’t terribly old.

85

What… The A350 is actually a 777 competitor
Look at range and capacity
And you will find A339 will be closer to 787

86

Yeah but it’s not
Airbus copied Boeing

87

Not exactly. The technology they used are slightly different.

88

So according to you and other Boeing fanboys, The A330NEO and A350 competing against the 777 and 787 isn’t ok and is copying. But airbus will lose market share of that happens. But then the A320NEO comes along and the 737MAX is developed, we use the same argument and somehow get told it’s fine because Boeing will lose market share if they don’t compete? Figure it out

Still doesn’t change that they copied the 787
Composite airframe, similar nose, different wings that stand out

I’m not saying anything to do with market shares. I’m saying they copied Boeing. That’s it

No. Just no. The ways the planes were built were already very different to each other.

The 787 fuselage sections are made of individual monolithic tubes. On the other hand the A350 fuselage sections are made of separate sections.

This has been a thing for quite a while, not just the 787. Other planes have also used composite airframes.
