European dreamliner

by **Dan4th** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 1:04 am

I would be interested in seeing a side-by-side
comparison of the two, but at this point any
performance figures for the A350 would only
be "projected" rather than "actual"....

Too lazy to go looking, however

.....

As I've stated before, I think it's a good thing
we have both Boeing and Aeroboose -- having
a worthy competitor forces you to produce a
worthy product!

I suspect the Dreamliner is a bit more of a
radical departure from the norm than the
Euroliner...

On the tech side, the A350 uses 53% composites against the 787 using 50%. You can only compare the smallest A350 against the largest 787. The A350 is more of a competitor of the 777 and smaller variants of the 747.
