Default FADEC = complex

No. Boeing used fly by wire at LEAST a decade before Airbus.

Well, if it does, neither FADEC nor FBW are it. Google "any modern jet
aircraft" for the former and "Boeing 777" for the latter.


Airbus used fly-by-wire long before Boeing did. It is true that now
that Boeing is beginning to include some FBW features, Airbus has to
look for something else ... such as aircraft size.
