Boeing 777X: Boeing Unveils World's Longest Passenger Plane(Pics) by Explorers(m): 9:02am On Mar 17, 2019 |
The Boeing 777X UNVEILED: World's longest passenger plane at 252ft makes its debut at factory ceremony, less than a week after the Ethiopian Airlines crash that killed all 157 passengers on board. The first fully assembled Boeing 777X, the world's longest passenger jetliner has been unveiled. The aircraft had expected to be presented with much fanfare in a ceremonial debut at the plane manufacturer's plant in Everett, near Seattle, on Wednesday. But as a mark of respect for those who died in the Ethiopian Airlines 737 Max 8 crash, it was instead unveiled in a low-key event that was only attended by Boeing employees. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-6813311/The-Boeing-777X-UNVEILED-Worlds-longest-passenger-jet-makes-debut-Seattle-factory-ceremony.html 9 Likes

Last year, Boeing released a video and pictures of a 'static' 777X rolling off the production line at the Everett factory. Boeing claims that the 777X will be the largest and most efficient twin engine jet in the world, with 12 per cent lower fuel consumption and 10 per cent lower operating costs than the competition. There is also an improvement with range. The 777X can fly for 16,110km (10,010 miles), compared to the 777's maximum range of 15,800km (9,817miles). As well as the folding wing-tips, the 235ft wings are the biggest Boeing has ever made, over 30ft longer than the current model's wingspan it also has bigger windows and overhead bins compared to the current 777 and 'advanced LED lighting'. Deliveries to customers are expected to begin in 2020. Carriers that have placed orders are British Airways, All Nippon Airways, Cathay Pacific, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Lufthansa, Qatar Airways and Singapore Airlines. The two versions of the 777X - the 777-8 and 777-9 - cost $360.5million and $388.7million respectively. 15 Likes 1 Share

A year after it's in the market one will crash, that's the sacrifice they'll make to appease the aliens behind invention. Like it or not, there's no technology made that won't claim human life, even as harmless as your smartphone. Blood sacrifice must be made to appease the demon. 9 Likes 3 Shares |
