Boeing 777X The New Twin-Engine Jumbo Coming Soon

Рет қаралды 460,214

Күн бұрын

While the new Boeing 777X took its first flight in early 2020, the aircraft is not expected to enter service until 2023 - at the earliest. However, despite delays, it is one of the most anticipated new models in some time. With high capacity and efficient twin-engine operation, it promises a modern replacement for retiring 747s and serious competition for the A350.
But… What makes the 777X different from its predecessors? And what exactly have been the hold-ups keeping it from the skies?

Additional: the delays are not really a surprise. As a derivative of the 777, Boeing expected the X to get easy rubber stamp from FAA like it had done previously for all its derivatives. the MAX forced the FAA to become more vigilant, and now, Boeing has to do a full certification and tests on it almost as if it were a new aircraft. The fact that problems are being found shows how flawed the rubber stamping of derivatives was.

I'm rooting for Boeing to understand they need to be a great engineering company once again - ongoing 737MAX, 787 and 777X certification, manufacturing, re-work, etc., issues are red flags they can and should address and not simply cast "blame" on the FAA, who is finally doing what they should be doing.

I'm now retired but I've flown the 747-400 and 747-8 and the 747-8 was pretty much a disaster in the beginning, so I can totally relate to the "...in a state of disarray..." comment by Tim Clark. Boeing couldn't organise a bing-drinking party in a brewery. In the US, everything is a 'quick fix' and this 777-x will be the same: a lot of hype and marketing. Rather than build something new from the ground up as Airbus has done with the A350, Boeing just 'slaps on some new wings and engines' and some software patches 'to 'make it all work' and calls it a day. Now how did that work out for the 747-8 and the 737MAX? 🤔

Aren’t the A350 and 777X in slightly different passenger classes? With only slight overlap between the A350-1000 and 777-8? Doesn’t the A350 compete more with the 787?

@felixli5279 2 жыл бұрын

1) yes, if u meant 'size' or 'seat count'. 2) yes, usable cabin total floor area for seats of 35K and 778 are practically identical if in similar cabin config/seat density. 3) Depends on which of the 2 specific 350 variants u are talking about. In terms of seat count in a comparable cabin config, the 359 sits right in between the 789 and 78J but obviously larger than the 788. Therefore, a more accurate description is that the 350 family competes against BOTH the 787 AND 77X families if u are disregarding specific variants in your original question and simply mentioned '350' and '787' which refer to their entire aircraft families.

Let's be real, coach sucks. I love business class, (I wish everyone could afford it, several times I couldn't afford it, and most of those, I did it anyway.) And all the weeks after I have secured my seat, I have an excited feeling about my upcoming flight. (almost all of my flying since 2014, have been flights from NY to Manila, most with one stop, depending on the airline ... Flights of Many Hours ... Close to 20 trips, 777, A340, A380, A350 .... and I LOVED it, as long as I was in Business class. Which airline it was, almost is un-memorable, as Business class is just so attractive, comfortable, unlimited food and drink, room, privacy, ... just great. I am 74. )

''Extra space for seating'' ? you are kidding? The original 777 was nine abreast seating, the seats were an almost civilised width. Then they invented the 10 across seating which made the seats more narrow than the 737 which is a nightmare quite literally for long overnight flights which this plane is intended for. The extra 4 inches will do little to improve this. Also the 787 was originally conceived to have 8 seats across but the majority of them have the greedy airline 9 across.

Most people with vaccinations, and some without, would gladly travel as they did before, for business or personal reasons. At 4:24 the engines are the largest (biggest diameter fans) but they are not the most powerful.

They may well increase the thrust to the engines capabilities if they develop a HGW version, freighter for the 777-10 in the future.

777's is basically just a 747 without a hump, with only 2 engines & near 3/4 of the toilets removed. Better to have a 3 engined version of the 747, with an extended hump, with a engine layout like the Lockheed Tristar, but with the mid engine in the tail mounted within a aerodynamic shroud that after takeoff & climbing to altitude, can be turnoff & closed off to minimise drag. Because once cruising only 2 engines are necessary. Problem is, unlike feathered turboprops, high bypass turbofans have the aerodynamics of a brick when switched off. This can only be resolved by something like a fuselage mounted central engine enclosed in an aerodynamic shroud that can be open & closed when the mid-engine is switch on or off. Of course it won't happen now we can remove the hump from a Jumbo & remove 2 of the engines, plus most of the toilets, to maximise profits (the 777 has the same fuselage cross section as a 747 with it's hump removed)
