A slightly tenuous grasp of airliner economics here.
The 757-300 has sold a scant 55 so far, with none on order (according to ATI), which seems to reflect the small size of the niche for "250+ seats, medium range, and no belly hold cargo capacity". Why in God's name would Airbus want to chase that market?
And why likewise would Boeing want to produce a trijet? Brand new design, all to cannibalise 777 sales, invalidate their key argument about twins being able to do everything...and to keep some anoraks happy?
(uy707 - isn't "807" a Peugeot registered trademark?
)
