Worst Airbus Airplanes
Some Airbus planes are horrible. Vote on which one is the most.How dare you compare this to the glorious 747, The Queen of the Skies! I mean, the 747 is the Queen, and the A380 is the foot washer! This beast has a nose that looks like it was sanded down way too many times, and it drinks fuel! I wouldn't want to fly on this plane from Miami to Orlando because it would run out of fuel and plummet to its death! Why does Airbus make such ugly planes? They can't compete with the 747 with that junk! It's like going to war with a straw and spitball against people with atomic bombs!
I'm a Boeing fan, and Airbus honestly had no originality with this aircraft. When Boeing made the 747, I'm not sure why they didn't stretch that hump because that's exactly what Airbus did! Airbus was made precisely to battle the aviation industry with America, unlike companies such as Boeing and Cessna that put heart into their aircraft! The only key features of the A380 are that they stretched out the second floor and moved the cockpit to the lower deck. They basically gave a second floor to the A320 because that's exactly what they did!
Hmm... Let's see... Looks like Airbus copied Boeing again. The A350 is extremely similar to the B787. They just made it a few inches wider to impress customers. Not only is this aircraft designed to compete with the B787, but it's also designed to compete with the B777. Pfft. Fat chance. One Airbus plane could tackle two Boeing planes? Right. The B777 is much wider than the A350, can seat more, travel farther, etc.
The A350 is such a hideous aircraft. I didn't realize that until now. It's such a copy of Boeing's 787. I mean, look at that nose, then take a look at the fuselage. A stumpy, pushed-in sharp nose followed by that long fuselage with wings featuring terrible 787-style winglets and a horrid small tail. Something as ugly as that can never compete with Boeing's graceful planes. When the 777X comes out, the A350 program is dead.
Agreed. The nose is bigger than the body, with tiny wings and an ugly shape. It's shocking to see over 4,000 of these bullfrogs being built.
Something about this plane that makes me laugh is that its safety feature made it crash!
The nose looks bigger than the body. The wings are too small. The body is totally ugly.
Does anyone even buy this? You can just get a 777!
Ugly just like the 777. I can't believe the beautiful MD-11 got killed by those two aircraft.
I don't know what Airbus was thinking because the 777 is killing it! The A340 has one deck and four engines, which makes the plane look really bad. And the wings look awful with the mini winglets.
Oh yeah, if we say that "four engines are safer than two," even though it costs more to operate than a 777 (the two-engine competitor from Boeing, which is much better), we'll get all the orders, not Boeing. Ironically, it turned out the opposite way.
Another hideous design is the central landing gear. Is this Airbus saying the plane is too heavy?
Window seats are designed for dwarfs. Normal-sized people are cramped and twisted to conform to the curve of the hull.
An incredibly bloated and shortened A300 with wingtip fences.
This is how the A320 was made...
Old. Why is it still in use? Thirty-two years in service, and yet Thai Airways and many airlines still operate them. They're too old, although Thai is phasing out their A300s.
Isn't this plane 10,000 years old and about to fall apart? Oh please, Boeing is just chilling while the 777 kills the A340, A300, and A330. And the 777X will destroy the A350!
The A319 is really tight on US Airways. A normal adult can hardly reach under the seat to access the carry-on space. Passengers using the tray table often find it hitting them in the belly or chest.
This plane is acceptable for short hops - an hour or two. We were recently on an A319 flight from Seattle to Philadelphia, and the five-plus hours were torture, especially because our flight was very full.
The worst non-commuter plane still in the air. I would prefer a Canadair any day.
Wait until they come up with the A318neo. I'd love to see these micro-sized planes fitted with those giant engines!
This plane is way too tiny and short-ranged.
Yes, the A380 is extremely ugly, but hey, props for being big, sleek, and modern. But the Beluga? It's not just the ugliest Airbus plane. It's the ugliest plane, period. And since Airbus copies everything, it wouldn't be a surprise if they copied the Super Guppy. Even that looks better. This thing is a disaster with wings.
The A380's little brother. What is it used for again?
If you dare say this is better than the 757, I will be very angry!
Seems like a pointless plane. It's just a longer A320.
