Re: Boeing 787

It's not designed to be big. Its size is comparable to the 767. Also, this is the 787-8 version, which is the mid sized one. There is a 787-3 planned which is a version aimed at high frequency domestic flights (it is virtually the same as the 787-8,but it has shorter wings and uses winglets), and a 787-9 version, which is stretched and is aimed at longer distance flights carrying more people.
