I’ve flown the A320,A330,A340 and A380. The A380 is,in fact,a nice aircraft but nothing special.The others are even less noteworthy.I absolutely prefer Boeing and fly Boeing aircraft whenever possible.

I am impressed with the size of the A380 and the building of a plane that big, but I am biased towards Boeing.

The 747 is an absolute jewel of a plane. I love it. And I always liked the 727.

I don't fly, but there is something in me when looking at the cockpit of a Boeing aircraft that make me think "Now that is a plane." I don't get that from looking at the cockpit of Airbus aircraft.

AIRBUS:380 COCKPIT

BOEING 787 COCKPIT:

I suspect it is because the Boeing cockpit has a distinctly military look to it, where as the Airbus cockpit is more kind of "sci-fi" or spaceship look.

From a flying or maintenance perspective, I admit to having no clue as to which is better.
