Dear Boys and Girls, have any of you ever seen proper technical drawings for the proposed 2707-300 derivatives. I know that Boeing planned to offer an original smaller 2707-300 prototype-sized production variant as a sort of long-range "2707-300SP". There was also an all-six abreast seating version and a high capacity transatlantic all-seven abreast wide bodied version.I recall reading in an old edition of Jane's that the 2707-300 design facilitated major alterations to fuselage width and length because the fuselage was attached to the top of the wing surface and existing nose and tail-cone/empennage structures could therefore be grafted onto new fuselage cross-sections.I cannot identify any subsequent model designations to cover such variants; 2707-400? 2707-300B?Skybolt's attachment shows some of the schemes on pages 10-1 to 10-5......http://www.emotionreports.com/downloads/pdfs/boeing.pdfTerry (Caravellarella).

I cannot identify any subsequent model designations to cover such variants; 2707-400? 2707-300B?
