The A320 and A319/A321?
Once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you long to return

I would guess that Boeing's 757 and 767 have the same nose section.

My guess on the U.S. version would be that Airbus has never built a three-holer...
Boeing had the 727 and McDonald Douglas had the DC10/MD11 series

I would have to say BMI and Airbus. BMI has never been part of BA and Airbus has never been part of Boeing, they have never built a three holer, they are not based in the USA, and they have never had a former chairman become chairman of Boeing.

I'de have to say that Airbus because it has never been a part of boeing. If that's not what your looking for, how about this:
Boeing because it is the only one that really produces nice a/c. Just joking, the airbus company produces some fine a/c but i am american so, boeing to me is better in all ways.

US edition: odd one out is Airbus, not based in the USA. Isn't McDonnell Douglas now part of Boeing, or it has been incorporated into it? So, my answer for the US edition is: AIRBUS

Didn't the DC-1 and DC-2 have the same nose and wing sections?
I know that they weren't the same, but I've seen a picture of a DC-3 with a DC-2 wing. Appearently, it actually flew in China during WWII...
As for the Airbus/Boeing/MDD:
I would say MDD because it never built a widebody or extendbody twin-jet (Airbus A321 and A300/310/330; Boeing 757 and 767/777). The closest MDD ever got was a proposal for a twin-jet DC-8, a proposal for a twin-jet DC-10 and actually building the MD-80.
Those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it in summer school.

Well done Alcregular. correct, Dan-Air and BCal were both taken over by BA. As the chairman of BA said at the time to the chairman of BCal.. you keep the name British and we'll keep the name Airways!

Question for today:
Which airline is based in Antananarivo?
25 EI A330-200: Spike...I believe I was the first to touch on all three things that set the other two apart from Airbus. Just FYI. SO, you can't just choose one corre

28 Fritzi: uniTED, Me think someone needs a wee bit stronger glasses.
30 Spike: Well done ETStar. Bit easy though.. OK, how many sets of wheels does an IL-62M have?
31 Q330: The IL-62M has a total of 10 wheels (4 on each main gear and 2 on the nosegear) -Q
32 Spike: Sorry to say you are wrong, but you are.
33 Q330: Aha! There are two little wheels under the tail which brings the total to 12 wheels in 4 sets. -Q
34 Spike: I don't know I can't just write 'Correct' but that is what you are Q330.
35 Q330: That was a good question. As you can tell, I missed it the first time but when I took another look, the little wheels caught my eye. I guess the desig
36 Spike: With four engines all on the back, I think I would
37 Greg: 727 and 737 shared a common section 41--but not the same as 707 As does the 767 and 777. Clearly the A330/340 are both the same. F28/F70/F100 although
38 Iflyatldl: The DC-8 and DC-9 aren't identical, but have a few similarities. You can tell, it's got a Douglas nose.
