   I'll tell you why they bought them and why more an more companies buy   
   Airbus, more than buy Boeings, because they are cheaper to buy, cheaper   
   to run and, all having the same cabin layout, save enormous amounts in   
   staff and pilot training costs. In short, Aibus makes better aeroplanes.   
   Tough shit sunshine.
