Question Boeing - Why 7 series?

Can any enlighten me as to why Boeing aircraft families are all 7XX series? Ie. 747, 707, 737, 777 etc.

Is there some historical logic to this or was it an arbitrary choice?

Question Airprox?

A BBC news bulletin is claiming "US jet blamed for near miss with passenger plane over UK". That is all they are reporting at the moment.

Does anyone know anything more about this?

I kept getting the same mobile phone pop-up as everyone else.

Definitely a pprune based issue!

Can anyone out there tell me which routes into LHR are generally put into the BNN hold?
