You shouldn't be flying in a French airplane. I avoid flying with an
Airbus if I can.
Airbuses have been very safe. Just because there was a crash of one a
while back doesn't make them unsafe.
Boeings have crashed as well.

By track record, the early Airbus 300s and 310s had an excessive landing
crash rates due to design vs training problems with the digital flight
controls which were very modal. This has since been resolved.

When landing, big planes have what they refer to as a squish area right
as they fall in over the runway.
The C-17, having "blown flaps" experiences exactly ZERO lead in
'squish', so it fools the hell out of every first time C-17 pilot,
especially if previously experienced with big craft.

If, as I assume, we're talking about fly-by-wire controls, they first
appeared on the A320. The A310 was really just an A300 derivative.

You shouldn't be flying in a French airplane. I avoid flying with an
Airbus if I can.
Airbuses have been very safe. Just because there was a crash of one a
while back doesn't make them unsafe.
Its not just about safety. Airbus airplanes make a crappy impression..
Very little space for hand luggage. Small toilets. Everthing looks
like it is going to fall apart from just looking at it.
Boeings are the Chevrolets (or Cadillacs), Airbuses are Fords.
We flew through a typhoon on the way to Manila from Mindanao on an
Airbus (A319 I think). I was very impressed that the wings managed to
stay attached to the aircraft.
