Oh for crissakes stop deluding us. The minute this thing rolls out of the hangar the airlines will do all possible to try to cram 400 seats into this thing.

Whatever Boeing come up with, every airline that buys this plane will do its best to squeeze as many thin hard uncomfortable seats into it. Comfort??? Not likely.
Just wondering... what design number will the next one be?
"7117"? Or, start over with the 707? It's at least a decade out but who knows?
