I got a friend who asked me a question today, she looked at a photo on Qantas' Facebook Page and was curious on how to distinguish between one plane from another, so I decided to put it onto my blog.
To be frank, these speed birds are easy to be classified, and some aviation lovers can actually know the plane models who they hear the sound from the engine.
Basically, Boeing and Airbus are the two world known airliner manufacturers, you might know these two companies as you will definitely encounter their names when you book your flights. Boeing is based in the United States of America. On the other hand, Airbus is another manufacturer based in France. In addition, you may also be familiar with Embraer, Bombardier, ATR and so on.
We can simply divide the major airlines into three groups: regional, narrow-body and wide-body airliners. Regional speed birds have less than 100 seats; Single-aisle airliners have used for medium-distance routes; Twin-aisle airliners are designed for long-haul flights. However, some airlines will use twin-aisle planes to operate a short-haul flight, like those which are less than one hours as there is a huge demand for air travelers.
For the coming days, I will explain how to spot out whether a plane is a Boeing 777, or an Airbus A330, and so on.
I will kick off by introducing the two airlines which are famous for their huge capacity: the Queen of the Skies, Boeing 747, versus the double-decker Airbus A380. Stay tuned for my next post!! 😊
I will then move on to the discussion of on Airbus A330 vs Boeing 777, followed by the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737, and a lot more to go on the coming days!!!
