Any view on the
787-10 v 787-9
More pax versus a lower range (7000nm v 8500nm)

Both can seemingly reach JNB, DXB, LAX, SCL (albeit just for DXB on the -10)
Only existing destination that the -9 could do is DFW
(all assuming CASA approves ETOPS330 - but I suspect the fact that LA is already using the 787 on SCL adds political capital

GCMAP from SYD for 7000nm and 8500nm
