Noting Gipsy Queen's comments,

Shrewd observation regarding "Off the peg" designs, Trident was another that could (and should) have been more of a commercial success, if only BEA and HMG hadn't scaled down the original proposal.

Boeing knew a winner when they saw one and promptly brought out the 727 which was about the size of the original DH proposal.
