JTO - That's what I thought for a long time - and I am not casting doubt on the aircraft being able to operate at low altitude, but wondering how long you can do that and still make 4h/1200nm, and suspecting that the answer is "somewhat less than the original -700 based design". Meanwhile I will have to root around for the origin of the strange OEW number.
