Boeing 787 Dreamliner was originally planned to enter service in May 2008. For various reasons it was repeatedly delayed. The Dreamliner's maiden flight took place on December 15, 2009. It is currently undergoing flight testing programs before its entury to service in 2011.
Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a long-range, mid-size, wide-body, twin-engine commercial airplane with seat capacity of 210 to 330 passengers. According to Boeing, 787 consumes 20% less fuel than the similarly-sized Boeing 767. Some of its distinguishing features include a four-panel windshield, noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles, and a smoother nose contour.
787 Dreamliner has become the fastest-selling wide-body airliner in history. By February 2011, 847 Boeing 787s had been ordered by 56 customers.
The 787 is being assembled at the Boeing Everett Factory in Everett, Washington. Production will be enhanced as new aircrafts will also be assembled in a new factory at North Charleston, South Carolina, USA.
