Wow. Wonder how much it costs to fly on a plane like that..."I'm moving to the Left" - Lancer

Ah yes, the Airbus megajumbo or something like that. Beautiful thing. Like a flying hotel they say.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

I read somewhere that this plane is the largest that current technology will support. To get bigger they would have to invent a different type of wing material or something...can't remember the details.
Also, Boeing looked at doing a super jumbo, but decided not to persue it due to a predicted lack of market and a desire to concentrate on more volume producing units."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003Comment

Last number I read is 139 planes that are ordered plus talks about some 20 more. Profit should be made with ca. 250 sold planes. Airbus hopes to sell over 700, of course I have no idea if they reach that. Price is ca. 280 Millionen Dollar per plane.Originally posted by PLATO
