Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental - "Out Of Stock"

Ladies and Gentlemen,

It happens only seldom to customers of The Boeing Company that they cannot be offered any fitting product - still there is one big hole in the product range of The Boeing Company, let's call it "Death Valley..." I am meaning the price list of Boeing for the year 2014:

Boeing 737 MAX: about USD 100 Million
Boeing 787 Dreamliner: from over USD 200 Million to nearly USD 300 Million
Boeing 777: about USD 300 Million
Boeing 747-8: over USD 350 Million

In the price category from USD 100 Million to USD 200 Million The Boeing Company do not offer anything to their potential customers... A mid-size Boeing 787 Dreamliner costs between USD 200 Million and USD 300 Million - but the airplane is worth of its price naturally as it is made out of reinforced plastic and contains lots of high-tech in other terms, too... Its predecessor, a Boeing 767 costs between USD 100 Million and USD 200 Million - however no one is interested in this machine any more...

The gap in the price category from USD 100 Million to USD 200 Million could be filled out by a full double-deck version of the Boeing 737 MAX and/or by a remake of the Boeing 767 whose fuselage and wings are made of aluminium but it could be made environmentally friendly by other solutions... Passenger aircraft in the above mentioned price spectrum would mean aircraft for the beginning with commercial aviation from the point of view of passengers but for airlines, too which is a task that cannot be unsolved and what's more you needed modern and exciting solutions if available...

If The Boeing Company has run short of names then the name B757 was able to mean an entirely different aircraft in the 2nd or 3rd decade of 21st Century than in the 1980's... There are the names B707 and B717 and B727, too to be chosen... Competition is not as interesting at the design of your airplanes but Airbus is already represented in the price category from USD 100 Million to USD 200 Million by the Airbus A320neo...

"Lord, I am calling to you from the Valley of Death" (Psalms) - and you will be listened to...

Best wishes, Joseph de la Mikula and Team
