Boeing 787 Dreamliner

Boeing 787-9

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a state-of-the-art wide-body aircraft made from carbon fiber composite materials. The 787-9 is the mid-size version of the 787 family with a maximum takeoff mass of 254 tons, a capacity of up to 406 passengers, and a range of 7,565 NM (14,010 km). It is powered by two GEnx-1B70 engines with 349.2 kN of thrust or two Trent 1000-D3 engines with 331.4 kN of thrust each.

Boeing 787-10

The Boeing 787, also known as the Dreamliner, is a modern wide-body aircraft that has been in use by various airlines since 2011. During the development, particular emphasis was placed on better performance data. In addition to improved aerodynamics, new, quieter and more efficient engines were developed for the Dreamliner. To reduce weight, many components were made of composite materials. With a non-stop flight of 19,835 km and a circumnavigation of the earth within 42h 27m, the Dreamliner has set or improved two records in the 200-250 ton weight class.
