Yeah, have to agree with GB, Keg and Tim. I recall Boeing mentioned that the -10 was likely to be launched later this year, and that QF & EK were the two carriers primarily pushing for it. When you think about it, it makes alot of sense (where did QF management find that?!?!?). You can have a widebody fleet of 787s which can operate very efficiently on domestic routes, trans-tasman and regionally as well as new long thin routes such as Vancouver/Dallas/Rome/Santiago/Cape Town etc. Crewing would love it. If the order involves narrowbodies, surely it will be 73Hs, as opposed to new stuff. Too far off I reckon.
GB: How many seats would the -10 be fitted with in a four class config? Appears to be roughly... what A340-500 in size (bit smaller than 772)?
Bring 'em on!
