@Aviationnation10 747 is outdated, but in 9 years technology will improve alot unless the US continues to spend its money on useless stuff such as War and supporting Immigration with food stamps etc.. We will have to look up to China as one day they will be the strongest nation. Look up C919 that might be better than the 787. (They look the same anyway) 787 wont be outdated in 2020 so ill take back what i said.
@TheWarPlanet even though you deleted your comment...you do realise a plane takes years upon years to start a new progame...767 is over 20 years old and still extremly popular they dont just start another programe it will be at least another 20-30 years before boeing make a replacment for her c919 is crap very few orders
@Aviationnation10 Hahaha, learn some respect kid. If you cant respect other peoples opinion than dont comment. *End to this conversation* Reply but ill simply no even read it and delete from inbox.
@bildtker76 I'll bet when you ask for skymall or some crap, they'll say: "no honey, we haven't got any magazines. We've had to make severe cutbacks, because we are one of the companies being sued over 9/11"!
wtf are they talking about 2008? it made its first flight in 2010. and for all of those who dont agree with me then i just have to say YES I DID in 2010.
@Greatshow09 Nice, was your dad a pilot for them? I loved NWA. Living near Detroit, anytime I used to fly it always seemed to be with them (their hub being Detroit). I like Delta just as well though, in fact gonna be flying with them this Sunday to Seattle. Just found this video ironic... haha :)
@redneckalex08 With well over 40,000 deaths on the highways in the US alone each year, I'm much more concerned about traveling on highways vs. the flying the skyways. For all long distance trips, flying is the only sensible way to go. The odds are SO MUCH GREATER that you will die on the highways vs. the skyways! - If the airline industry had 40,000 deaths in a year - they would ground all commercial aircraft and shut down the industry!
that stinks-they just bought some awesome 787's then they got bankrupt and had to leave. Well actually they the merged with Delta so Delta probably has some 787's now.
Those comparing the 787 to the A380 are just showing your ignorance. These aircraft do not compete with each other in any way whatsoever. Get a life, trolls.
How did you figure that out, "more advanced"??? Do you know the specs, details and so on? Are you a engineer?
The A380 is one of a kind and an leap forward in aviation history! Its more quit, smooth and economical than any other aircraft in existence. Not my words, those are the scientific facts!
You yankess need to step up your game and stop hyping things!!
@Mauser712, you don't know what your talking, about when they the size, THEY MEEN THE WIDTH!!!!!! the A380 airbus doesn't come close to the width of the boeing 787. Plus, the A380 has problems with thier rolls-royce engines..."those but wipes..."!!!! ssooo you can go even search the stats of the 787 and th A380 and compare them.
bullshit video, here are the straight facts: composite (plastic fibre) built aircraft are not safe, they deteriorate without any visual signs and cannot be fixed. they're a ticking disaster waiting to happen.
The best airliner by far was Concorde. It was romantic, futuristic, glamorous, beautiful, exotic, advanced and evocative. The Boeing 787 is just plain dull. Efficient, intelligent & forward thinking but dull.
@schussman Airbus is like Apple, big pricy eye-candy that everybody wants. The 787 takes what Airbus is known for (carrying lots of passengers) and adds efficiency, comfort, and innovation.
@schussman A380 is expensive, unable to use much of the world's airports due to size & weight, is uneconomical, & soooner or later the old Airbus problem will show up with several crashes or hard landings where Airbus will claim pilot error. soon will come modifacations to software & new switchology to cure the problem airbus swears doesn't exist. plus what happens if the French government cuts funding to Airbus? economies are very tight, european governments have massive debt.
AircraftCompare DOTcom compares the 787 with all the competing airplanes in the world, with interior photos, specs and spices, know everything about every airplane in the world
@TheNelevitin *facepalm* not one person dude....800,000 hours may be 91 years but he said "logged" that must be divided by the thousands of engineers that worked on the project from around the globe simultaneously.
The 787 is not even in use right now. they're behind schedule. Boeing is not sure on the body and how its made out of composite. composite is stronger then steel but it wont bend, it will just break.
Boeing 787 is made by polycarbonate The same material that the A380 is made out of can't u see its wing Flex it is extraordinary What your saying is the flex it did on the inaugural Flight must have already broken the wing?
My nephew worked on this plane. He was saying a prolem they had was lightning strikes. With conventional the skin conducts electricity so lightning is not a big deal. They had to embed wires in the skin of the 787 so it would do the same Otherwise there would electric arcs and passengers and crew would get fried in thunderstorms
@AllenRockwell do not be an idiot. Carbon is a fantastic insulator. It holds on tight to its valence electrons. Since they can not move, carbon can not conduct electricity. It is physically impossible for carbon fiber to be conductive.
well someguy tells the truth. but you can deem southwest, jet blue, and virgin at the same level, because like you said, as Jet Blue and Virgin are of greater luxury, they are more expensive. Southwest is at the moment an underdog with few flights and destinations, all of which are domestic. Therefore they are at very little need for many luxuries, yet they have free check-in bagging, and free drinks and snacks. This is good enough for a simple 3 hour domestic flight.
It is a great design. The best for the next century. It has a fundamental concept. You know, What is pretty nice flies. Good luck and congratulations.
The reason for that my friend, is because they don't go for passenger satisfaction. They aim to make the most money off of you as quickly as then can. This stereotype fits most U.S. airlines, except for a select few. Southwest is a cheap airline, but they have few on board amenities. Jet Blue and Virgin are the only airlines that I think keep the passenger in mind. They have a lot of luxuries, but are very expensive. I know that airlines must make a lot of money to maintain their fleet though.
A year ago today I flew northwest airlines and it was very nice so those of you who go around saying northwest is crappy maybe you should fly it before you judge them just cause they went bankrupt their finaces may suck but their service is great
Plastic produces huge amounts of static electricity, just sitting in ur car & coming out at gas stations is dangerous! how is this aircraft going to dissapate that very potent charge?
The dreamliner will fail. Too much money is being pumped into this....and yet it's still undergoing problems and waiting. And who would pay 10000$ for a flight nowadays?
Well. I have to correct you there. As you probably understood in this wideo the plane is 50 % plastic. And when you think of the fuelefficiant engines and the light weight of the fuselage the airlines will save thousands of dollars per flight. Witch mean the ticetprice will be slightly lower.
it is regrettable that a backup automatic pilot security system using the european GALILEO wasn't implemented.... it could have been extremely usseful to take control of a plane from distance in cas of terrorist attack...
All materials in the 787 Dreamliner, including composites, have been tested and used in aircraft, including other Boeing aircraft, for over 40 years. Composites can withstand repeated flexing are not prone to sudden failure as are metal alloys that fatigue and destabilize.
Materials in the 787 subject to changes in heat and pressure are similar to those in the space shuttle and do not become brittle due to temperature changes.
Many parts in the 787 are from the same Airbus supplier.
Northwest is a low quality airline (Jetblue is much more comfy) and this ad is also quite bad.
The 787 is made out of untested materials that are difficult to maintain and prone to sudden failure. This is compounded by the fact that these materials become very brittle in cold weather.
The only thing in it's favor is that their only major competition, Airbus, is also making the same stupid engineering decisions (though perhaps to a lesser extent).
untested materials? besides CARBON FIBER i don't see any other materils new to this plane :/
and those are already used since years in space engeneering, formula 1, and warplanes....i just that before they use to cost too much to be produced on a high scale...
What we're finding out with the use of those materials in warplanes is that they are extremely expensive to maintain.
Compared with aluminum, steel and titanium, the ability of the "newer" materials used in the planes like the 787 to withstand stress is much more greatly affected by factors such as:
temperature variations
humidity & moisture
UV rays
and because it's extremely difficult to identify, diagnose and repair weakened or damaged areas, ongoing maintenance costs are very very high.
As much as I love Delta, I kinda wish I had the chance to at least see what the red tail 787 would look like in person.

The reason for that my friend, is because they don't go for passenger satisfaction. They aim to make the most money off of you as quickly as then can. This stereotype fits most U.S. airlines, except for a select few. Southwest is a cheap airline, but they have few on board amenities. Jet Blue and Virgin are the only airlines that I think keep the passenger in mind. They have a lot of luxuries, but are very expensive. I know that airlines must make a lot of money to maintain their fleet though.

A year ago today I flew northwest airlines and it was very nice so those of you who go around saying northwest is crappy maybe you should fly it before you judge them just cause they went bankrupt their finaces may suck but their service is great

Plastic produces huge amounts of static electricity, just sitting in ur car & coming out at gas stations is dangerous! how is this aircraft going to dissapate that very potent charge?
CreoleCommando 2 years ago
@CreoleCommando the plastic is covering carbon fiber which hates electricity. it will be all balanced out.

The dreamliner will fail. Too much money is being pumped into this....and yet it's still undergoing problems and waiting. And who would pay 10000$ for a flight nowadays?
bomberfun1 2 years ago
Well. I have to correct you there. As you probably understood in this wideo the plane is 50 % plastic. And when you think of the fuelefficiant engines and the light weight of the fuselage the airlines will save thousands of dollars per flight. Witch mean the ticetprice will be slightly lower.

isnt nwa gone aka mixed in with delta?

NWA is now officially Delta. As of January 1st of this year, NWA's officially gone.

Saves loads of fuel that makes it a great aircraft either makes ticket prices a lot cheaper or makes airline companies much richer.

it is regrettable that a backup automatic pilot security system using the european GALILEO wasn't implemented.... it could have been extremely usseful to take control of a plane from distance in cas of terrorist attack...
legendaryawesomedude 2 years ago
but what if the terrorist can hijack the system and control the plane from a laptop in a cave.

All materials in the 787 Dreamliner, including composites, have been tested and used in aircraft, including other Boeing aircraft, for over 40 years. Composites can withstand repeated flexing are not prone to sudden failure as are metal alloys that fatigue and destabilize.
Materials in the 787 subject to changes in heat and pressure are similar to those in the space shuttle and do not become brittle due to temperature changes.
Many parts in the 787 are from the same Airbus supplier.

Northwest is a low quality airline (Jetblue is much more comfy) and this ad is also quite bad.
The 787 is made out of untested materials that are difficult to maintain and prone to sudden failure. This is compounded by the fact that these materials become very brittle in cold weather.
The only thing in it's favor is that their only major competition, Airbus, is also making the same stupid engineering decisions (though perhaps to a lesser extent).
787, the most overhyped aircraft ever.
ihamoitc2005 2 years ago
untested materials? besides CARBON FIBER i don't see any other materils new to this plane :/
and those are already used since years in space engeneering, formula 1, and warplanes....i just that before they use to cost too much to be produced on a high scale...
legendaryawesomedude 2 years ago
What we're finding out with the use of those materials in warplanes is that they are extremely expensive to maintain.
Compared with aluminum, steel and titanium, the ability of the "newer" materials used in the planes like the 787 to withstand stress is much more greatly affected by factors such as:
temperature variations
humidity & moisture
UV rays
and because it's extremely difficult to identify, diagnose and repair weakened or damaged areas, ongoing maintenance costs are very very high.

Have we gotten into bleedless technology yet?
Or what is the first primarily all electric airplane?
natbienvenue310 2 years ago
787 is bleedless iirc. All subordinate systems are run via onboard electrical, not bleed air.
