The 787 is a wide-body aircraft developed by US-based Aerospace conglomerate Boeing.
Launched in 2004, the all-composite fuselage aircraft development suffered from several delays prior to the first flight on December 15, 2009. The 787-8 model entered service in 2011 with Japan launch customer ANA. The 787-9 followed in 2014, entering service with launch customer Air New Zealand.
The 787 introduced a large number of innovations and technologies, starting with the all-composite wing and fuselage structure, bleedless engine installation, replacing the traditional engine extracted pneumatic system with electrically powered compressors, electrical brakes, electronic breakers and more.
The size, fuel efficiency, and range capability of the 787 revolutionized the air travel industry by promoting more frequency and direct point to point long haul routes highly contributing to the decline of the large Hub to Hub optimized double-deck airliners.
Boeing Business Jet division proposes both the BBJ 787-8 and the larger 787-9 business variants.
