Maybe, but I believe the 777 is an "old" airplane and they needed something new to compete with the "new" airplanes from the bus. Yet they apparently don't feel that need with the 737 - the first model which came out decades ago, yet they keep making new versions of it. I'd expect a new 777 (which isn't actually an old design by airliner standards) would be far less expensive to improve than building a completely new ...well, tube with wings. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee"
