expect an aircraft that can haul 1,000 people, yet able to fit into the infrastructure of a 747...

Not only less than 110 pounds -- but also less than 5'10" in stature.

According to my buddy at Boeing who works in the loads group, there will be more room actually on a per person basis; width wise...

Their biggest issues are:

- Loading & Unloading
- No Windows
- Non circular pressure vessel (Elliptical)
- “Different” factor - People don’t like different...

Infrastructure. As in:
- Runways
- Jetways
- Maintenance Bays
- etc.
