Simple math says 3200 divided by 8 miles a minute gives it a 6+40 range to empty tanks. That sound pretty domestic plus canada, AK, HI, central Am to me.

As far as comfort goes, we fly pax to europe in the 757 already. I flew it once on a 757 and it was painful, very painful, but it did beat swimming there.
