Hate the name, still not enough to stop me flying one, mind.

So it remains single aisle and not twin and doesn't fill the void left by the 757. How much more can they squeeze out of this original aircraft.

I really do wonder how the market will pan out...

It strikes me as Boeing just coming up with something to compete with the A320NEO after it got all the orders it did but it doesn't seem to have all the extra changes that the NEO has.
