The journalists would finally call it the right kind of aircraft, since they’d be the same company.

I guess this won’t happen…
The governments of the EU and US would probably prohibit such a big merger, due to economical competition issues.

But if Airbus Purchases 100% Stake in Boeing or Vice Versa then What?

Plane quality would probably decline because there would no longer be competition

EU could still say no (like they did with the Ryanair offer for Aer Lingus)

If that happened, both Airbus and Boeing fan bases would have nothing to fight over anymore. What a shame…

And no more Airbus VS Boeing
This will probly never happen.
If it does Boeing will take Airbus money and use it against them and only make one gaint aircraft company

Like others have said, this will never happen since it would give the merged firm monopoly power in the market, therefore a competition regulator would reject such a merger.

IF it would happen. Not if it COULD happen. 'Cause we all know, that would be a nightmare and at the same time a dream.
That’s what I said lol
If they do merge, here’s what I think about it . If one of them becomes part of the other company I’ll not be happy. If they come together and become Boebus or Airing I will be happy
If they don’t merge…
I HATE WAR BETWEEN COMPANIES!

Why can’t we be friends, why can’t we be friends…

Boeing would then have to buy out airbus, all their funds come from the government. 75 percent is not even theirs. Not a criticism, airbus may have Emirates chuckling the a380’s for them but Boeing has the 777 in Emirates’ line, Boeing also has NASA, fighter jets, rockets. More or less everything.

If that happens I’m shifting my investment portfolio towards Embraer and away from Boeing. But that’s not going to happen, so no worries about my financial future.
