Let's see how many people I annoy with this post....

From pilots perspective I have to say that these are on the top of my list:

MD-11: Impossible to manually fly a stable approach and whilst on approach you have to maintain a 5/6 degree ANU attitude and in flare this increases to more or less 15 degrees ANU ie you can't see a damn thing.

B737: "And the award for most chaotic cockpit goes to *drumroll please" the Boeing 737!!!"

Just one Airbus featured on my list, this is the A310, it just looks like they gave the A300 a punch on the nose and tail and *tadaa* now we call it a A310, everything is way to big compared to the fuselage.

Haha, Jeroen! Note that almost every plane you show us has a French registration. Proving that the French dont have a proper sense of taste :mrgreen:
