Modification of the Boeing 787-9 with almost vertical takeoff
I saw today in the video-hosting a wonderful takeoff Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner and immediately wanted to share the news. Although Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner passed certification in mid-2014, the airline still bought it.
So Boeing Corporation has demonstrated an almost vertical rise in the Air Show 2015, held in Paris from 15 to 21 June. All of this was captured on a special video from different angles.
The purpose of the modification
The main purpose of the modification is the ability to replace several passenger aircraft:
- Boeing 767-400ER
- McDonnell Douglas MD-11
- Lockheed L-1011
- A330-300
- A340-200
Benefits
The main feature of the development is 787 less fuel consumption by 20% compared to other models of Boeing (elsewhere: in comparison with similar models of other firms).
Flight range Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner - more than 15.3 thousand kilometers.
Depending on the layout of the cabin can carry up to 290 passengers.
