EDIT...The design of the Boeing 797 is aesthetically pleasing. The idea is a good goal to shoot toward one day. For all practical purposes, however, thing is just a hoax...I really like it though :lol: :agree:

I Googled Boeing 797, and there are a lot of stories regarding this "spoof" Peter. One goes back to March 2012, so it's not exactly a news story.

Having said that, I also think that it looks good.

Bill Ortis (Lionheart) made one of those for FS9 a few years back. I even started a repaint for it, but the model wasn't very repaint friendly.

People inside a blended wing?
Who would have thought of such a modern idea?
