  • When it's built it looks like the plane is leaning forward slightly, is this because it's not fully loaded?

  • I don't really know, it could just be for a more aerodynamic shape.

  • why does the 777 dont have winglets like most of the others ?

  • In the case of the Boeing 777, an airplane with exceptionally long range, the wings grew so long that folding wingtips were offered to get into tight airport gates. Dave Akiyama, manager of aerodynamics engineering in Boeing product development, points out that designing winglets can be tricky because they have a tendency to flutter. And so the computer came up with a Boeing 777 wing design that did away the winglets and fly just as efficiently.

  • i have flown in the 767 and the 737 and all boeing planes look aerodyanamic

  • I LOVE THOSE PLANES: 747 AND 777. BUT I ALWAYS CHECK WITH THE AIRLINES IF THEY FEATURE 747 ON THE FLIGHT I WILL BE ON. ESPECIALLY FOR LONG INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT. I PREFER 747, U KNOW, 4 ENGINES. FEEL SAFER. BUT ANYWAY BOEING IS AWESOME.

  • @Cappadoccia04 on most planes, their are three places where the fuel is stored.Two are in the wings and one is in the center of the fuselage like in between the wings.so im pretty sure thats where the fuel is stored.

  • @bacnka first of all,it's leaning backwards and second it's because of the length of the plane because the gear is in the middle,so with weight of economy class, so it's leaning backwards

  • like building a lego plane

  • Not to sound stupid, but where exactly does an airplane store its fuel? Is it really in the wings?

  • @737boeing8

    Was i wright or not?? (;-)

  • @devrajvarma

    yes, it is easy. the base model doesnt have raked wingtips. the LR has raked wingtips.

  • @gokc1 Newer LR and 300ER versions have raked wingtips which actually do more than the winglets will
