 John asserts Boeing doe snot study the airplane market on an operational
sense.

I have to disagree.  I know the other big companies constantly study the passeng
er market, looking for missions.  Sure, the airlines study the market,
but Boeing has to figure out what distance, payload and cost and speed.

the 727, 707, 747, 767 were all developed based upon studies that
N number of people wanted to go between certain distances and at certain
times.  otherwise we'd still be using DC-3s.
