The 787 will revolutionize are (sic) travel and fuel economy. No. It won't. It's still a tube with wings attached. And RR doesn't seem to be able to get the engines right which will force the early customers to probably accept much less efficient GE or Pratt motors.
When Boeing finally gets past their "not invented here" BS and starts seriously developing the BWB you will see a revolution in economy and and air travel.

The only revolutionary thing about it is that it is a plastic plane that’ll shatter on impact! Now that’s the kind of change I want to see in the airlinere I fly!

Ahhh, the NIH syndrome. The death knell for many a closed mind.
