        Not even indestructible, just big heavy destructible death traps!

        There’s a video floating around of a midsized sedan from the 60s and the 00s in a frontal offset crash and the old car is absolutely demolished.

      If you say so.

      (to be fair, “better” is a silly/useless entirely subjective metric for anything, stronger usually means heavier, lighter and stronger often means too expensive/resource intensive to be practical, “made better” might be a lesser quality but more profitable product to a capitalist piece of shit, etc)

        I’m having a hard time believing the first picture is a real airplane. Are you sure it isn’t a mock up? The width of the cabin rivals the 787 I flew on from Japan.
