The 787 Dreamliner is the Newest Aircraft from Boeing. It's new features enhance the quality of flying, while it is slightly bigger than the current 767.
The 787-8 Dreamliner and 787-9 airplanes will carry 223-259 passengers in
tri-class configurations on routes of 8,500 and 8,300 nautical miles (15,700 and 15,400 kilometers) respectively. A third 787 family member, the 787-3 Dreamliner, will accommodate nearly 296 passengers in a two-class configuration and be optimized for routes of 3,500 nautical miles (6,500 km).
In addition to bringing big-jet ranges to mid-size airplanes, the 787 will provide airlines with unmatched fuel efficiency, resulting in exceptional environmental performance. The airplane will use 20 percent less fuel for comparable missions than any similarly sized airplane. It will also travel at speeds similar to today's fastest wide bodies, Mach 0.85. Airlines will enjoy approximately 45 percent more cargo revenue capacity.
Passengers will also see improvements with the new airplane, from an interior environment with higher humidity to increased comfort and convenience.
There are also features like a new cabin lightning with projectors, that will project stars and more to the ceiling, aswell as new Turbulence systems that will detect Turbulences and steer against them.
Production will begin in 2006. First flight is expected in 2007 with certification, delivery and entry into service occurring in 2008.

Get the Rule 787mug. The act of globally blocking a moderator/administrator from the classic wikipedia knockoff called FANDOM for zero reason. Its like the sick child cummers (FANDOM staff and SOAP) come out to cum on little children and let them slaughter themselves even though they did NOTHING WRONG!!!
The act of Boeing 787 landing gear caused the suicides of more than 100000 Wikia users over the years.

Megan: Ah fuck, Knmagor0024 got blocked! that sucks cuz I liked her!
Yura Kuzenkov: Knmagor0024 got blocked because he made an inside joke about slaguthering pigs.
Megan: Fuck your shit Yura, you just Boeing 787 Landing Gear'ed Knmagor.
Yura Kuzenkov: I ain't put 10 tires on her wings!
Megan: Choke on my Av33's 9 inch schlong I never wanna use FANDOM ever again.
Yura Kuzenkov: Ill fuckin leak your IP adress and global block your account too.
Megan: dont you damn dare Boeing 787 Landing Gear my acc!

Get the Boeing 787 Landing Gearmug. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an American wide-body airliner developed by Boeing.
After dropping its unconventional Sonic Cruiser project, Boeing announced the conventional 7E7 on January 29, 2003, which focused largely on efficiency. The program was launched on April 26, 2004, with an order for 50 aircraft from ANA, targeting a 2008 introduction. On July 8, 2007, a prototype 787 without major operating systems was rolled out; subsequently the aircraft experienced multiple delays, until its maiden flight on December 15, 2009. Type certification was received in August 2011, and the first 787-8 was delivered in September 2011 and entered commercial service on October 26, 2011, with ANA.
At launch, Boeing targeted the 787 with 20% less fuel burn compared to aircraft like the Boeing 767. It could carry 200 to 300 passengers on routes up to 8,500 nm (15,700 km; 9,800 mi), a shift from hub-and-spoke travel. The twinjet is powered by General Electric GEnx or Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 high-bypass turbofans. It is the first airliner with a primarily composite airframe and greater use of electrical systems. Externally, it is recognisable by its four-window cockpit, raked wingtips, and noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles. Development and production rely on subcontractors around the world more than for previous Boeing aircraft. Since March 2021 final assembly has been at the Boeing South Carolina factory; it was formerly in the Boeing Everett Factory in Washington.

The initial 186-foot-long (57 m) 787-8 typically seats 248 passengers over a range of 7,305 nmi (13,529 km; 8,406 mi), with a 502,500 lb (227.9 t) MTOW compared to 560,000 lb (250 t) for later variants. The stretched 787-9, 206 ft (63 m) long, can fly 7,565 nmi (14,010 km; 8,706 mi) with 296 passengers; it entered service on August 7, 2014, with All Nippon Airways. The further stretched 787-10, 224 ft (68 m) long, seating 336 over 6,330 nmi (11,720 km; 7,280 mi), entered service with Singapore Airlines on April 3, 2018.
Early 787 operations encountered several problems caused mainly by its lithium-ion batteries, including fires onboard some aircraft. In January 2013, the U.S. FAA grounded all 787s until it approved the revised battery design in April 2013. Significant quality control issues from 2019 onward caused a production slowdown and, from January 2021 until August 2022, an almost total cessation of deliveries. The first hull loss of the aircraft occurred on June 12, 2025, with Air India Flight 171.
Boeing has spent $32 billion on the program; estimates for the number of aircraft sales needed to break even vary between 1,300 and 2,000. As of June 2025, the 787 program has received 2,199 orders and made 1,198 deliveries.
