Speed OTOH is the most realivent stat. Size is great, the speed of something that the ticket! Take the Us for example: Get it as big as possible to carry as much as possible to do all in as few moves as possible. Now don't take this the wrong way but North America ( Mostly the U.S., but not to say Canada isn't " guilty " of this too) But try to do as little work as possible. Hence the recycling of basic 50's design features. Case and point I had the same idea about making a cargo jet! Go back now and take Japan,China,etc... "The Orient Express" the name says it all...Express. Get it done quick. As you well know Japan has some of the fast trains in the world... not only that lots of them. their philosophy: Speed and confort.... and to be home for there " after school specials. They have realitively small trains that go stupid fast and they have alot of them. Many trips at high speed will smaller loads, using electric power supply. The US makes huge jet with the abililty to carry mass quanities of good or passengers would be cumbersome and costly to run. Exspecially if they were to build many of them. The economic state of the airlines world wide is not the greatest. Grated the comparision is not fair, but OTOH you get the picture. There is though something that would make this a much better idea for the future.... light ( or laser) prepulsion. Lightcraft Technologies has come up with quite the interesting concept that I think could be implament in some way. Then this might be useful. http://www.lightcrafttechnologies.com/gallery.html I would have to agree that it is a little late 1000 jet is just a bit much to me. Speed OTOH is the most realivent stat.
