Another point on the A359 regional...

It will use the A350-800 engine? Really, what A350-800? What engine is that? Oh, the 75K version. Is that a different engine or just a derate? Thought so.

Between A359, A359 regional, and A339NEO; all you really have is a chocolate mess that canabalizes each other. Nice offering there, but what about above and below. What a disaster! The A350, despite a good looking -900, is a failed strategy. The A358 is dead and the A350-1000, launched in 2006, has fewer firm orders than the 777X launched in 2013
