840 is a tough call, even for an A380. That would require an average seat pitch of about 30″. On the plus side: unmatched operating cost per available seat mile and very low fuel consumption.

What was the actual seat pitch on the frame with 853 seats? (The toilets were not omitted – they were replaced with cameras. It had only 8 seats abreast on upper deck, and only 10 seats abreast on middle deck.)

That’s odd.

JAL seem to think that there are 568 all-economy seats on their B747-400D aircraft.

Still, I’m sure you know best.

I read it that they call 568 the “standard” seating capacity, in the table at the upper right – and are more specific on their seatmap on the bottom of the page you linked. 80 business class, 466 regular seats. They present total, too, and present it as 546, which fits the numbers added. 80 business class, 28 of them in nosecone.

Not sure but I’m guessing it’s one of those ‘rat class’ Japanese internal flights on a 747… ?

Not so.

JAL domestic 747-s have only 546 seats, 80 of which are business class (8 abreast in fuselage, then 6 abreast in last row of nosecone). ANA domestic 747s have only 565 seats, 23 of which are business class (5 abreast in last row of nosecone).
So the question is about biggest plane without any premium seats at all.

Most single class seats?

What is the largest number of seats on one class plane?

The largest number of seats on any plane is Corsair 747-400, 587 seats, but those are 558 coach, 29 premium seats (5 abreast and extra legroom at front of upper deck). What is the biggest plane without any sort of premium class at all?

Sukhoi specifically blames Saturn, and specifically clears Snecma of blame.

If 747-800 had such a big delay shortly before maiden flight, does Boeing have any idea as to how or whether 787-800 is progressing?

Now they have an idea: the fix did not work.

They still claim to fix the fix this year:

A few weeks ago, Boeing claimed that they would fly both 747-800 and 787-800 this year, and could fly them the same day.

If 747-800 had such a big delay shortly before maiden flight, does Boeing have any idea as to how or whether 787-800 is progressing?
