You might call it a Douglas.
But if it is full of physically unworkable composite parts and pieces, it will never endure like other Douglas planes. They would then call it a "throwaway plane", as some of our mechanics call the A-320/319. We pay much higher prices for replacement Airbus parts than for Boeing or Douglas parts. If we pay about near double on the streets for a concert or football ticket, we call it "scalping".
Is this proposed "Boeing" design to be based on very light weight composite parts and a goal of short-term operating cost savings, as some other manufacturers have done (reportedly in Brasil, among other places), or will it be built to endure, as the older Convair, Lockheed, Douglas and Boeing aircraft (along with Bae, the Bac 111, Vickers, certain Airbus products etc...) were designed?
Woops-maybe I "let the cat out of the bag" again.
