Is this common?

We all have preferences of planes, seat, arilines, etc.
I can even see people wanting to "fly American," if that's how they want to choose what planes they get on (or "fly European" for that matter).

But I've never heard of a general mistrust of Airbus Jets...

Are you concerned about safety? Is there a significant difference in the safety records of Airbus vs. Boeing? Or is it just that Airbus is the new kid on the block?

enquiring minds want to know....
