I find that really amazing how many A321 are ordered in the last time and i think that the internal pressure at Airbus is rising to come up with something bigger.......

New wing for the A321 and than stretch it. This would be already billions..... Probably would be very good and nicely sell-able product.  |

Does not need to be that expensive if the basic design is used with a wing root extension. Would bring lift, perhaps drag reduction through a greater span and space for fuel. The stretch should be simple. |

The A321-200 is very close in size already to the B757-200 see below. Main differences MTOW, Range and engine power.  |

Sorry, I think your discussion about possible A321 developments does not belong in this thread and should be moved to some other one.
