Good luck to Airbus with it - its a big beast, wouldn't want to be in charge of the cabin myself though
You should see the b1tchin going on about it from users in the US about it on ,dare i say it, Airliners.net - frankly quite amusing !
They can't bear to think that for one moment someone else may have a good idea and do something about it.
Perhaps Boeing could learn a lesson here, they maybe took it for granted for too long that they were the worlds biggest airliner producer - and did a good job too - but 777 aside,, have come up with nothing really new for 20 years now.
737NG is a rehash, 757 production recently halted, 767 sales very minimal and 777 a success but slowing too.
Hope the 7E7 launch is as impressive as it is made out to be, and will there be a 747 derivative soon ?
