Boeing 787 Dreamliner: First Look

[saultube44]

This plane is made of Carbon and Titanium, so even if it crashes it will have more survivility that current planes, also still has many tests to go, like flying with one engine, applying brakes at take-off speed, etc. and then fine tune it for mass production, it will take aprox 1 year of tests to start tunning it up before going production.

[GirlsHateMeVeryMuch]

With all this new state of the art technology could this mean an end to plane crashing ?

[Rawrrrx19]

More people are killed by donkeys than in plane accidents. Driving on the highway has more potential danger than an airplane.

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah i think travelling on a plane is safer than going on a roller coaster these days

[amilldevil107]

it is its been proven statistically that air travel is the safest mode of transport there is.

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah i knew it was a few years back but i didnt know if it still was

[Treetop64]

@Rawrrrx19

For sure.

I fly a lot, and I drive a lot on busy commutes. I hear on the radio of frequent injuries, and maybe one or two deaths, during numerous motor accidents during the workweek, every week, for the entire year. And that's just on a few busy stretches of highway in one metropolitan area!

We'll hear of a fatal commercial aircraft incident in this country in, what, once every couple of years or so?

I feel far safer flying than I ever do on most motorways.

[Rawrrrx19]

@Treetop64 - If only road transportation could improve at the same rate as everything else. A hundred years ago, flying was thought to be fictional and impossible. Now, they're the safest and fastest mode of traveling. Vehicles using roads have been around since ancient Rome, and they're still dangerous!

[Airplanespot]

I quess that's not a reliable, their are too much factor as problem.

Terrorism,

[soccerlizy]

notice they only show u first class. not were the normal ressecion savey people sit in the economy seats. u can kinda see them in the background they're brown.

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah i guess but different companies will change the colour, and it seems to be really open as well which is good it gives a sense of economy being with the first class and not dividing us (if that made sense at all)

[weinerschnitzelboy]

@soccerlizy Yes, cause when you're trying to sell the product, you want to advertise it's worse features...

[lasvegasjh]

Great! How about bringing back the Concord?  lets keep going further back in time!

[ConcordeCentral]

or try to make an updated more fuel efficient version

[TheAntonkr]

Can't wait to fly this thing on FSX!

[ConcordeCentral]

it depends where u get it from some are good and others well r not so good really

[BOBKB3NZX]

ok.... great, but the music choice bites. something a little more serious and accomplished would fit this

[101HeyNow]

Lets face the truth guys. The market the plane to be so nice and comfortable. The second these roll out and the airlines get ahold of them they are going to install the smallest seats possible and stuff everyone in like animals.

[lasvegasjh]

That is exactly what I was thinking... they will figure out how to get more smaller seats in there it will wind up being the same old thing!

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah this is true, and i was watching the news about this and they were comparing it to the a380 i mean i really would prefer the 787 i wouldnt like to be in a plane with 500+ people

[cycc1111]

But i prefer Boeing!! They use engine is better than airbus engine, and is not wate a lot of fuel!

[sealalula]

and Boeing are safer too :)

Compare to the past 2-3 months and history too

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah thats true shame im going on a airbus next week :S

[sealalula]

Dont worry about it :)

Airbus is great too , i flew with an A340 for 14 hours non-stop last month.

Check out my video !!

[ConcordeCentral]

lol im not

wow a 14 hour flight and i thought that the 9 and 11 hour flights were long and boring if only i could sleep on planes and in cars :(

yeah my flight is a little hop from exeter to malta around 3 hours ish

[sealalula]

Yup , crazy !!!

And its the old cabin , not new !!!

HongKong-Toronto is about 16 hours !!!

[juiced2death]

but i will be pampered haha singapore to london sia a380 beat that lol

[sealalula]

Hahaha great !!

How long will the flight last ??

Will you be taking videos ??

[juiced2death]

the flight will last about 13 hrs most probably would take vid !!

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah but the a380 is efficient but we will need to see how it compares against the boeing 747-8 and the 787

[raykrislianggi]

Boeing 747-8i will be more efficient than The A380 because it has more advanced engine technology than Trent 900.

[ConcordeCentral]

oh cool i didnt know there would be a 787-8i i knew that they r going to use the trent 1000's but didnt know how they would fare against the 900

[raykrislianggi]

The Boeing 787 only offers -8, -9, and -3. Boeing 787 doesn't have the name "Intercontinental". I suppose you mean Boeing 747-8i. Boeing 747-8i will use General Electric GENX only, and it's the most advanced engine technology in the world.....

[ConcordeCentral]

oh ok cool i thought they would both have rolls (787 and 747)

[juiced2death]

yeah but dont u realise that they r copying rollce royce

[juiced2death]

but its samller so more efficientcy advantage

[sealalula]

what a beauty , any idea is this bigger than the A330-300 ?

[ConcordeCentral]

i think it is smaller but only by a little or bigger but they r near enough the same

[sealalula]

ok thats great :D

[DJDarkJordan140]

The airbus A330-300

Wingspan 197ft 10in

Fuselage diameter 18ft 6in

Overall length 208ft 10in

Height 55ft 3in

[DJDarkJordan140]

Boeing 787 has three model 787-3 Wingspan 170ft length 186ft 787-8 Wingspan 197ft Length 186ft 787-9 Wingspan 208ft Length 206ft and all three standing 55ft 6in tall

[sealalula]

Ok thanks for that, but im sure those Trents 1000 are going to win the Trents 700 mounted on the A330-300

[ConcordeCentral]

yes i think they look amazing and their 'rugged' bits at the end of them to stop the noise a little look good as well. and Trent 1000 it just sounds like a top quality engine

[ConcordeCentral]

ok cool i didnt know that isnt the 787-3 used for shorter flights

[DJDarkJordan140]

The Boeing 787-3 Dreamliner is a super-efficient airplane with new passenger-pleasing features. It features a wing and structure optimized for shorter-range flights. It will bring the economics of large jet transports to the middle of the market, using 20 percent less fuel than any other airplane of its size. 290 to 330 passengers. 2,500 to 3,050 nautical miles. It will be a great aircraft.

[afrodude312]

Can't wait to see this flying over my house!

[ConcordeCentral]

i know it will be amazing

[TheMayor5000]

When do you think the first ever take off will be?

[ConcordeCentral]

it has had it but dunno comercially

[volcom1722]

wow payback from boeing to airbus!

[ConcordeCentral]

yeah

[gopussycat]

hope this beauty will fly very soon.
