@kev.explain: Airbus vs Boeing: who's really in control, the pilot or the computer? ✈️ Boeing pilots fly with a yoke, Airbus pilots with a sidestick, but the real difference is the fly-by-wire philosophy. On an Airbus in normal law, the sidestick doesn't move the control surfaces directly. It sends a request to the flight control computers, and they keep the aircraft inside the flight envelope. Full sidestick to the side? The bank stops at 67°, however hard you push. At 67° of bank, holding altitude takes about 2.5 g, the load factor an airliner is designed for. Boeing trusts the pilot. The 737 has conventional flight controls: the yoke drives the control surfaces through cables and hydraulic actuators. Past 35° of bank you get a "BANK ANGLE" aural alert, but no hard limit. On the 777 and 787, bank angle protection adds force on the yoke past roughly 35°, and the pilot can still override it by pulling harder. Computer or pilot: who do you trust more, Airbus or Boeing?

Boeing has more crashes

irone :

Boeing... a human is the real pilot, not a computer.

sizwe :

airbus is safe.

Sam :

ill drive

Tendai Guzuwe :

people make mistakes and the industry learns that for a long period of time but Boeing still give the pilot full authority

bobby :

Manual driver and automatic transmission drivers..

So if a xmchip controls Airbus, the likely mhood of chip malfuction is possible and after 10 yrs, can it be still reliable?

cirro :

i would rather trust a computer than a human

Mr Redditch :

I fly ATR

mukasaxp :

trust no one, because an Airbus A330 flying from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to Paris, France, crashed into the Atlantic Ocean on 1 June 2009,the co-pilot in control mistakenly pulled back on the side stick, pitching the plane upward.

Sukhoi :

i hate humans

ACA :

Boeing 737 Max crashes computer controls the planes and crashed. dont forget
