I don't think it will ever be made into something worth downloading

As a plane that was scrapped (for the 787?) it'll be hard to find good photos of it.

Nice jet and Idea.

But It would be hard to find everything to make one. There probably is a "budget" one out there somewhere. but it would prove very hard to make one to fulfill the requirement of most simmers these days.  Especially with little information available on the aircraft.

Yes, it was scrapped in favor of the 787 as a 767 replacement.

buying what? there's not a whole lot to buy, and I highly doubt the airline has the resources to build the thing if they planned on buying the aircraft plans

But it's hard to model nothing

If no details are available I would assume something along the lines of Concorde or TU-144 'Concordski' gear would be appropiate as they were supersonic airliners

[Flying_Pie]

sonic cruiser isn't supersonic though, it planned on cruising just below the speed of sound to avoid the sonic boom

Even above the Atlantic/Pacific etc?

Yup, she's sub-sonic.

That is something what boeing is probably going to make it for the 797 series..

^This is fake





Or it would be that plane that they are making it..

I'm sure Boeing will come up with something amazing
