Lock SH 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2012 Flown both, Boeing's narrow and widebody, don't quite like 'em ......... the technology is still 'ancient' even with FBW and improved FMS........ Sorry, personal preference I guess and NOT 'A vs B' brand bashing...... Â Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leon t 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2012 Boeing's 777 and 787 are all fly-by-wire andbelieved that the newer 738 and 739 are also incorporated with FBW. Perhaps some may think bec the 737 still maintain the same fuselage corss section that it is "ancient" - however the new 737s are just as new as the inards and even the wings are all redesigned.
