Why would I buy one? Even if I was a super billionaire a 747 or 767 would be better. Even the sultan of Dubai or something only has a 777.

Beautiful and agreed. And fuel efficient at Mach 2! No re-heats needed for Concorde at that speed.

Sure, but 737max still does. Considering that Boeing bought Douglas, it is pretty close.

No I wouldn't. You can only land it in a relative handful of places. I'd rather have a BBJ MAX any day.

Too costly to run and too limited to where it can fly.

I rather have a ShinMaywa US-2. Allowing me to fly just about anywhere.

Tangentially related, I wonder if this would work for connecting Tristan de Cunha to South Africa, giving the island air service that way.

too much work and maintenance to connect some shitty island population 300

there's no way to refuel on the island so the thing would have lug a round trips worth the entire distance.

Too far from Cape Town. 1300 miles and the plane has a 2200 mile range. It couldn't fly there and back without a refuel.

If planes were affordable by anyone anon, then there'd be a lot more 9/11s in the world.

Wouldn't be hard to ship enough fuel to the island to last a few months worth of infrequent flights.
