Sorry, didn't bother to check it after starting the thread. |
Maybe this one will be able to carry the passengers bags....?
Alright I will get my coat.... |
it's like putting two feathers on the little arms of a T-Rex.
Let it die in dignity, please .... |
Ok is this for real?
If so any chance for a retrofit on current aircrafts? |

The non retrofit is puzzling... And what technology enhancements made this all the sudden possible (vs being part of the initial design)?! |
They could make it even more efficient by chopping the top deck off and losing 2 engines. |
Wonderful news. I can't wait to hear how many we are buying.
|
42 apparently.

... nice website...got this as a take-away...
The optimised cabin layout based on the ‘cabin enablers’ presented at Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX), allows up to 80 additional seats* with no compromise on comfort: redesigned stairs (a ladder), a combined crew-rest compartment (you get to sleep conjoined to your steward), sidewall stowage removal (since PCs are verboten ), a new 9-abreast seat configuration in premium economy and 11-abreast (fat pax get two but must share knees if needed) in economy. |
allows up to 80 additional seats |
Evacuation tests were carried out with over 800 pax. So still a way to go yet.

You don't know whether to laugh or cry. |
Just laugh it's the best way.
The heap of junk won't be around it ten years time and EK if they are still afloat will have a mixed fleet of short, medium and long haul a/c. Now there's a novel ideas:*:D |
puff m'call
Mate you and I and everyone else in the ME Knows that, however: Those that must have the biggest, newest, blingiest, fastest whatever are still involved in a Willy waving exercise with the other contenders, in the race to the bottom. The sky taxis being the next joke in Dubai. |

You don't get pay rises so why do you care? The fleet that best serves staff travel gets my vote. And that little twin can't fill it's seats and fly far enough away from the sand to where I wanna go. I am however an advocate for the Boeing doing more flying. So let's hope this new folding wing one works a bit better. |
Aw a person who still believes he works for a benevolent organisation.

Have you got one for the 77x? Same same. (Please shake head when reading the needful).

Does this graph look at all sane? To ANYONE?? To be honest as SLF I love the 380 |
