"Could just open up it's tail." I think for a passenger airliner, they would need to seal the tail and make it unable to open. Which could save some weight on the aircraft itself.

You can estimate about the same equipment weight as the weight of an average person for every single seat you want to cram into that plane with the additional necessities to make it a competitive product - You can 1.5x that if you want a range increase on the plane as well. The 747-400 has a MTOW of 410 tons, the A380 has an MTOW of 650+ tons.

The ideal mix Is the 747-8 with a length similar to the 400 model and an upper deck taken from the B777. It doesn't need so much width and heigth as the Dreamliner. The main deck (or bottom deck for passengers) would be similar to the 744 Combi (cargo between 4 and 5 doors) in order to have enough space for baggage and cargo. Option of wingtips as the new B777X Simpler, not so tall, less weight, more efficient. Why not try a video with my idea?
@erojerisiz1571 Жыл бұрын
iirc someone did some research about the 747's upper deck stretches and concluded that for max efficiency the hump has to end at the center, right around where the wings are, which is why Boeing stretched the fuselage for the 8i if that wasn't the case I'm sure the later 747s would retain the original length but the upper deck would go all the way to the back PS speaking of efficiency, why don't the dreamlifers have wingtips?

The Boeing 747-8 was designed to operate within the same facilities as the 747-400, the aircraft the Dreamlifter is based on. The 747-8 has a higher maximum take-off weight adding over 100,000 additional pounds gross take-off weight over the 747-400. The GEnX engines of the 747-8 are 15% more efficient than the CF6 used on the 747-400 and the wing is also more efficient. This means using the wings and engines of the 747-8 (both models share the same wing-root), at the same stated range, the maximum payload would be 350,000 - 400,000 pounds. This may be enough to produce a Dreamlifter as a passenger variant. The only reason the Dreamlifter was not based on the 747-8 was used 747-400’s are cheaper than a newer 747-8.

I still think a better 'cargo-to-passenger' conversion would be a bespoke passenger fuselage using the An-225's wings and tail, resulting in a plane that looks like scaled-down Deck III (also seen on this channel) Sure it'd probably still need a modified airport gate just for the colossal wingspan, but the passenger space would actually accommodate passengers. Then again, tarmac-only loading would allow multiple doors to be used in parallel, greatly speeding up boarding/unboarding by going from the front and back and/or both sides in parallel.

The other problem with 1000 passengers is feeding them. You'd need at least 1 flight attendant per 50 passemgers so that's 20 flight attendants. They aren't passengers. That 980 passengers. You'd need mid plane galleys because no cart is going to hold enough meals to serve 1 row let alone 3-5 seats per row. 1 more like 2 mid plane galleys would be necessary if you want breakfast service finished before lunch. That's going to cost you at least 4 rows of center seats or a total of 2 bulkhead to bulkhead rows per galley. Imagine the garbage from just one fight!? That has to be stowed. Like was mentioned, you have to pressurize that gigantic fuselodge, oxygen, call buttons lighting, restrooms (that would be part of the galley space deduction). You might as well just go with the Airbus 380 at 853 passengers because that's about what you'll end up with. Remove first class seating in the AB380 and make it all economy and you might get to 900.
