Its funny how to compare company's and how are going today, engineering has gone to the glue pot which was to happen, few years time if your heading East to West it will be ARRBOE and heading West to East it will be BOEARR , one notable thing happened many years ago were they flew the A340 from France to New Zealand with the logo "world longest ranged aircraft" or something like that on the fuselage.
