Thank you, SF. As an aviation aficionado I want to believe I’d never come anywhere close to mixing both aircraft up, but I guess this content may be useful for someone else.
There is 1 major difference you forgot to mention and that is the landing lights. The A320 has the the landing lights underneath the wings in front of the landing gear while the 737s have landing lights on the wings
Yes i know about those differences for a very long time. From the first time flying onboard an airplane with a Boeing 737 back in 2009 to the last time i flew onboard an airplane with the Airbus A320 back in July 2018.
Knew all these differences and another is that the 737 tail has a little v shape at the front of it and the A320 family doesn’t also the tail APU port on the A320 family (and all Airbus jets) is perfectly rounded like an exhaust pipe on a car versus the 737s blunt nub shape or triangular pointed tail cone on the 737 MAX family. 😊
Airbus has it's double strobe, while Boeing - single one lol : )) Also I heard that Boeing and Airbus has totally different approach to wing design. Airbus has much heavier and tough wing which makes Airbus feels great on takeoff and landings. While Boeing has light and flexible wing, which have most advantages on cruise flight. But they had to create additional controlling surfaces called flaperons to help aircraft maneuver on low speeds.
For me the difference is there service history The 737 has a bad reputation from its early history and is considered one of the most dangerous planes to fly on, the max 8 variant is no exception As for the A320 also has plenty of crashes but isn’t that bad as the 737’s history
...as well as much more modern! 'Not just a cobbled together update of a plane of the mid 60s with a fuselage from a 707 of the mid 50s! 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦
As a Boeing lover I must say that the 747 is probably the most iconic airplane in modern history it has been featured in a lot of films but not just that I have read that Airbus 380 is getting outphased because of it's size and the logistics of operating it like special things at airports I remember they had to land one here in Las Vegas just to test if the runway would fit it.
Mate you are an aviation news and aviation technology channel, we as your audiences are 99% aviation geeks who doesn't know why we follow the industry 😂 we knew these differences when we were 2. I am not even a regular flyer. 😅
Too easy. We all can. Well, those of us who have loved aviation since we were 5 years old. You should explain spotting the difference between an MD11 and a DC-10... some level of difficulty. 737s have a Boeing nose that it closely shares with 707, 720, and 727. It can be seen miles away.
Only Boeing Classic and NG (Next Generation) engine nacelles have the somewhat flattened bottom, not the Original (200) some of which still fly passengers in Arctic Canada. As others have pointed out neither do the MAX series with the chevron chopped nacelles at the rear. 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦
The 787 has Chevron Nozzles, Large Dimmable Windows, Carries less passengers, more built, older, had more incidents, different shaped front. The A350 is more advanced, newer, less being bought, larger, carries more passengers, has more efficient engines, has a black window mask that helps sun glare, quieter cabin, durable.
Except for that embarrassing demonstration flight with a full passenger lod which overrode poor pilot inputs and gently touched down into the forest at the end of the runway! Miraculously one one person was killed. Nevertheless, if it's Boeing, I'm NOT going! 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦
