"Airways" is A recommended Read Today on The Maturity of The 787

It is not often you learn so much about an airplane but today we have airways summary on the 787 performance of the 787 from its start until now. Take your time link up and read during a break. Know that the 787 is here to stay, in fine form.


"The Dreamliner is reaching its maturity Since its EIS, the 787 has logged more than 257,000 flights and 568 million revenue miles, transported 48 million passengers and operated more than 500 flights a day for 31 airline customers thus far. On average, Dreamliners fly 12 hours a day and it is estimated that 2.1 billion pounds of fuel have been saved so far, together with a dispatch reliability finally reaching more than 99 percent after well-publicized teething pains.

Winging It:

The Boeing performance plateau has more to go before reaching its peak. The initial innovation pit Boeing has conceived from the 787 beginnings is like yeast on the bread dough. Many new ideas are building the next 777X  and the Max from its initial incubation period during the 787 program. The "should we do this mentality" is replaced with confidence of "We need to do this". Laminar flow technology as mentioned earlier in Winging It, is a need to do this statement flying over Airbus. The 68" CFM Max engine compared with the Airbus 78" CFM will out perform its engine mate when slung under the low riding taxi of the  Max 737. Weight is the true final frontier in aviation development. Every pound added is a penalty for air travel. From luggage bins to bathrooms pounds come off and passenger are added. 

Its time to explore luggage-less options in aviation and passenger weight per ticket purchase. For one a passenger may have the opportunity to before pack with a destination. The thought is to go on the jet as is, and order online rented clothing before departure having it delivered at your hotel before you even land. The hassle of packing, toting and paying luggage handling is gone. Go online and rent suits, dresses, and under clothes online before you leave. They will be in your motel room before you arrive at the motel. No tips needed at the airports. You choose from the electronic catalog
