What will its top speed be? 264 mph is a bit pokey as jets go.

The company says the jets will be much quieter, more fuel efficient and have lower emissions than current 747-400 models.

Quitter, more fuel efficient, lower emission? What the difference does it make? Boeing don't manufacture jet engines. It's the G.E. and Pratt&Whitney or Rolls Royce... BS!
