Bhoy Your Correct, there is some confusion between the launch and first flight!
I think the 7E7 will be a huge seller for one reason…If ANA buys 50 of them and can fly them at 20% cheaper cost than JAL soon JAL must buy some to compete, I don’t think Airbus is building anything that can compete with the 7E7 on a cost per mile basis, so there will be only one show in town for a while! Take a good look at the USAF new Tanker requirements, the 767 deal is being stalled and there may be the likelihood of a 7E7 tanker for future needs…think of the fuel savings alone vis the 767…this program could be huge for Boeing.
