Most of them are Boeing it seems:
14x Airbus
35x Boeing
5x Bombardier
3x Embraer
- JimBlackwood 3y agoDoes Boeing also have more plans in service and/or more flights?
- discordance 3y agoFor a fair comparison, this should be measured against flight hours per manufacturer
- krallja 3y agoTakeoff/landing cycles, actually. Cruising at high altitude is much less rough on the airframe (including windows) than the strains that happen when changing altitude.
- jbverschoor 3y agoA quick search gave me 12K vs 10K planes. I couldn't find the actual hours or number of flights
- kube-system 3y agoAnd until last year, most of the planes in the sky were also Boeing. And the Boeing planes in the sky, on average, are older.
