I’ll see your Air France and match with a Lauda, and raise you an Air China. You Boeing propagandists really want to start counting bodies?

I used to love A330's, but now I won't fly on them.
Sure the odds of being on a A330 that breaks up in flight are low, BUT IT ISN'T Zero.
As far as Lauda air goes, Airbus 330's have more thrust reverser problems than 767's do today.
My prediction is the A330 is going to be the DC-10 of the new millennium.
