Any remember when the brits and euros were telling us Air Bus will put the American co Boeing out of business with their A380?

And the AirBus is still the best long distance passenger plane
That's a strawman argument if I ever heard one.
I do find it funny how every clean-sheet Boeing designed since 1970 has emulated the Airbus invention of the widebody twin… And how the A320 so perfectly replaced the 727., while Boeing's own 757 was too big. While the 737 is too small and still saddled with 1960s baggage even in the new MAX.
I can honestly say that I don't.
The Europe (France, Germany and England) and The Eastern Bloc are where the American innovation imported… Example - TVC and the supercruise innovation technologies.

- Will Alitalia really go out of business within a year? Their service was horrible and the plane was so old and the seats had cracks and holes. I think the entire airline and its employee should leave
- Which airline companies pay their future flight attendants during their training, and which airline companies are unionized? I also wanted to know which airline companies pay their future flight attendants during their training time, as well as which ones pay for their housing whether it be at a hotel somewhere or not. And which airline companies pay their flight attendants the best and treat their employees the best?
- In 1947 an USA Air Force plane flew from America to Europe completely by autopilot. There were no computers at the time. How was it done? The plane took off from America, flew over the ocean, arrived in Europe and landed on a British airport completely under control of the automatic pilot. No man interfered; the autopilot took all the decisions and did everything by itself. I would have thought this impossible without a computer AI to control the plane. Anyone can explain how did that autopilot work?
- What Do people who come to the airport with their own private car do to their Car when it's time to board the plane? Do they ship the car? Do they ship it to wherever they are going or what And if it remains in the parking lot then what car do they use to get to their destination after the plane lands at their destination
