See AllWould The Proposed Airbus A350-2000 Be Better As An A350neo?
I was wondering, with Airbus supposedly doing feasibility studies into a potential stretched A350-2000, would it not make more sense for it to instead go with a re-engined A350neo program? This could perhaps be the first aircraft to use the new Rolls-Royce UltraFan platform, but not necessarily. Of course, I'm not an expert, just a guy who wants to know if he's crazy to think that this might be a possibility. What do you think? Would Airbus be better off re-engining the Airbus A350 than giving it another stretch? How many A350s have you flown on? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments!

10 US Airports That Are Perfect For Planespotting
Surprised that MSP isn't on this list! I know it doesn't have the most international aircraft movements, but the fact that it's Delta's 2nd largest (fortress) hub, coupled with the Aircraft Viewing Area being on the field itself leaves me surprised that it's not at least an honorable mention. Great list otherwise though - keep up the fantastic work!! :D
