Jump to postThe thought about the 757 jigs and production line crossed my mind the other day and I couldn't find what happened to it. Does Boeing still have it? Is the production line still intact?

Jump to postI would agree here. Discounting any deals/deposits with Airbus, the 777-9 would seem to be the winner here hands down. with the Airbus deposits, the A350-900 or 1000 could be an option although with the 787's already on order seems to a degree a bit redundant.

Jump to postFinally they've come to realize this! A good 757 replacement that would have legs for TATL, good short-field performance, and about 15% fuel savings (achievable with new wing, more plastic, new engines) could open up many direct secondary markets and stay true to Boeing's point-to-point vision. I pe...
Jump to postI really think the 777X will be one airplane for the record book from both performance, efficiency and orders point of view. There really isn't anything out there that can touch it (at least as it looks on paper). Of course, airlines would be stupid not to consider it, especially if you have 747's o...
