Some figures to wet your appetite. I know firsthand the JQ 787s all weigh about 114ton empty they will carry 335pax and 10 ton of freight at Mach.85 with an average fuel burn over 9hrs of 4750kg hr. They will easy do Syd -Lax. They have the cargo room downstairs to accommodate 335pax and baggage with enough room for 20 ton of freight. All with the baby 64k ibs thrust engines. Just makes you wonder what QF will be able to do with a -9 with big engines.
