Boeing 777 Related Posts

The Boeing 777 in my personal opinion is the aircraft that in the 30 years has changed the most the way and standards of flying. This aircraft type is the one that brought high capacity to the twin engine plane market.

Before the launch of the 777 in 1995 most high capacity flights had to be operated by less efficient and fuel hungry 747s. Once the Boeing 777 entered service, all the more when the 777-300ER entered service, the paradigms of flight changed forever.

Airbus who had bet on the ETOPS not being revoked by the FAA had spend most of the '80s developing the 4 engined A340 found itself chasing Boeing in the high capacity aircraft market segment. The A330 was only a partial response to Boeing, however it couldn't compete with the much larger American made airliner.
