Will Boeing ever catch up to Airbus?

It’s almost as if they can never recover. Meanwhile, Airbus is building more planes in the United States than Boeing.

Boeing needs a good house cleaning - they keep trying (or at least that what it appears to be) to do the bare minimum to get planes in the air.

Funny you would post a picture of an A380 while talking up Airbus

You know I stay awake late at night wondering the same thing

Interesting you chose a picture of the A380, an aircraft that is already out of production and airlines are quickly retiring their fleets.
Airbus completely misread the future commercial market by producing a giant quad jet.

It’s not each other they should be worried about. It’s Comac & China that will have huge disruptions to their market share over the next decade+.

Actually, they got it just right with the Neos

Boeing quality control is quickly approaching Chinese levels.

Bring back McDonnell Douglas

The Airbus planes that Delta is buying are made in France. My brother flies to France and brings them back to Atlanta for Delta.

Actually the issue involves a superior workforce as a whole.
Not the long ago .....Boeing's Indian programmers screwed the entire system up and crashed planes for no reason at all.
This problem involving a window that comes off in air ......is a inspection issue. Maybe they need better quality inspectors than those they have. Airbus has issues as well ....Manufacturing at that scale is a fun game......
I thought I had a distribution transformer problem because two transformers blew up o a wind farm .......then we discovered that Siemens had the pooch on every wind tower and was pumping off the chart harmonics through the system.

Bring back tri-jet layouts, they look rad as hell.

You don't inspect quality into the part. You build the quality in. Given that this aircraft was brand new I would say their build quality is suspect.

They spent the first two decades of the 2000s making some really dumb decisions, including discontinuing the 757 without a future plan, not to mention letting Southwest dick them around on the 737.

They are opening another assembly line in Mobile.

And yet you post a pic of an airbus flop

The airbus narrow bodies, 320 family NEOs and the 220, are assembled in mobile.
And Boeing has a assembly plant in South Carolina.
