Airbus expects years of grappling with A380 cracks

Don't I just? I do remember fondly the faithful vc10. I used to fly it when I was BA crew. A superbly engineered machine I can say.
Nice to hear that.
Thank god 787 already solved their wing crack problem and etc. when the first plane still in the factory which make it delayed 2 years.
Some commites. Boing link up two control system so even it is fly by wire, two pilots can feel what each other is doing. Airbus's side yoke system don't, which on AirFrance 447 the action of two pilots' cancelled out each other. And when you engage auto throttle on Airbus the lever don't move at all, on Air France 447 pilots thought their plane is in flying full throttle but it is not, the auto throttle disengaged itself due incorrect air speed input.
Boing's fly by wire is put the control toward pilots, Airbus's is put the control toward computer.
Although nowadays the computers are more relaible but Win7 still crashes.
And A320 is much more younger than 737-100,200,300,400,500,600 you should compare it to 737NG-700,800 and 900 also please dispite false maintance.
An airplane won't be safe unless Airplane manufactor, Engine manufactor, Pilot trainning and Maintaince comes together. Oh plus a safer would without people want to turn commercial airliner into terrior weapon. Personally I'd like to fly in a 777-200ER or 300.

Not the First
Sorry James,

I remembered that the 747 and the 767 had cracks in the wings when they first came out in service. Most new planes will have problems and the manufacture will correct them as the problems arise. The 748 is modified so it's not much to do since they have felt with those problems already with that model. The A380 will eventually evolve into a much better aircraft.
