Toffeez, Airbus and Boeing do it all the time. A340-500/600, A330F, MRTT, 77ER/NG/i, A310, 764 etc. As shown earlier it could be a regular subseries, A321XR, A322XR. It would mean additional sales...

In Europe most A320 operators use containerized baggage. This would be an enhancement for a A322 over the 757.
I think in the US most airlines don't use them because the 737 and 757 don't have them...

I think the A330 and 767 fuselages could provide a bases for a shorter range aircraft.
Both were even born like that (767-200, A300). For the A330 to become efficient, Airbus would have to get rid...

Half truth ;)

900ER's have bigger fuel tanks then A321s. Put a 737-900ERs max payload into an A321 and it brings it 2 hours further away.

I think for thr A321 V1 is about 135 and VR about 145 kts.



Airbus / CFM and PW promise the NEO's will do even better, 12-15%. Also MRO costs are significant lower. That said the 757 is the...

Incorrect observations IMO.

Boeing probably would have started already if they weren't occupied with the 787, 777X and...

toffeez, its not a 757 replacement.

It an aircraft covering medium long flights up to 250 seats.

That segment is now covered by the A300, A310, 767-200, 767-300, 757-200, 757-300 and Tu154.

Correct, at the time. The economies of the 757 started to look unacceptable compared to the 739 and A321.

Airbus ever going to launch a real 757/ 762/ A300 Replacement? Airbus A322 ?

The A321 seems increasingly successful as a 757, A300/310 and 767-200 replacement.

Technically it seems to have run out of wing/ payload-range to cover the markets segments now dominated by the...
