For a long time, Boeing has stated it does not want to cannibalize the 787 order book before announcing its up and coming 797 announcements. Perhaps that sentiment is true and its working to protect its 787 order book and delivering more 787 before announcing the 797 programs. Besides waiting for an engine maker decision for the 797 this is a true belief from the ranks of Boeing's board and marketing gurus.
The old relationship terminology would add "it's complicated" to its 797 lexicon. However, it doesn't stop Winging It from considering the why's and what's going on with Boeing. The main thing is to keep the main thing, the main thing! The 797 is the main thing after-all. I can't determine where the balance of power is on the 797 concepts. I am still working with the Chicken or the egg problem and have determined it's all a scrambled mess.
But the good news is having an opinion where the bad news is your opinion really is a bunch of hooey. Here is my opinion with hooey at no extra charge. The 797 is waiting for its engine before laying an egg. The Chicken lives a long life in spite of fast food drive-throughs. The 797 is coming to a theatre near you by 2020.
