I've always wondered why there happened to be somebody there filming...
Any speculation?
Oh and I'll bet the Boeing guy will start calling the Airbus guy filthy names and they will get into a fist fight and someone will have to call the police to break it up.
There won't be a fight. The bigger Airbus guy won't be able to catch the faster Boeing guy.

Jump to postIt's that damn Airbus Taxi By Wire problem again!!! When are they gonna get that fixed???

I just found out that a friend of mine has quite a unique job. He's an "In-flight Specialist". Basically, he works in the cabinet shop for one of the biz jet manufacturers.
