The isles are tiny to and every time the stewardess walked by, she bumped the hell out of me.

So why not blame the airline who is responsible for ALL those problems. Absolutely NOTHING to do with the aircraft. Seat pitch, width, numbers, decor, covering, other facilities, noise proofing is ALL down to the airline and nothing to do with the plane maker who provide an aluminium tube ready to be fitted with what the AIRLINE request.

The Aux APU also had an issue, so mechanics running up and down the plane trying to fix it.

One of the most common faults for all commercial airlines, be it boeing, airbus, McD or anyone else. Also the APUs come from many manufacturers and can be the same unit fitted on boeing or airbus. Again, absolutely nothing to do with the aircraft.

Anyway, you Europeans can have your Airbus aircraft. I won't fly them ever again if at all possible. I'll pay extra to fly Boeing and this is the first Airbus I've flown in 10 years with similar experiences to what I flew 10 years ago.

Thats fine but i doubt they'll miss someone as clearly poorly educated as that who cant distinguish between the aircraft and the airline.

They did fix the water dripping on my leg problem though - By drying the plane out so much with A/C that you practically get a nose bleed.

So that'll be the same A/C parts fitted to boeings then.
