Looks better proportioned than the -8. Possibly the best looking airliner that will be in the skies.

It will never be a match for Concord.
Beauty personified.

Interesting comment from Boeing. If you watch the takeoff, you'll notice the gear doors open, and then close, but the gear remains down and locked. When asked Boeing commented that they had made unspecified upgrades to the gear doors, and they "operated as expected".
