Boeing 777-200
|
The Boeing 777
currently is available in five models: 777-200,
777-200ER (extended range), 777-200LR
(longer-range), 777-300 and the 777-300ER
(extended range). The 777
program was launched in October 1990 with an
order from United Airlines. In June 1995, United
flew its first 777 in revenue service. On
august 29, 2007 TAM Brasil ordered
the thousand 777 airplane since the first order
of the popular widebody in 1990.
The Triple
Seven is Boeing's first application of
fly-by-wire, an advanced technology glass
flightdeck with five liquid crystal displays,
comparatively large scale use of composites (10%
by weight), and advanced and extremely powerful
engines. The 777 was also offered with optional
folding wings where the outer 6 m of each would
fold upwards for operations at space restricted
airports.
Boeing 777-200
Freighter
Due to enter service in fourth quarter 2008, the
new Boeing 777 Freighter is based on the
technologically advanced 777-200LR (Longer
Range), the world's longest-range commercial
airplane. The 777 Freighter will fly farther
than any other freighter and will provide more
capacity than any twin-engine cargo airplane.
The new freighter brings Boeing's 777 family to
six models. Boeing selected the 777-200LR
platform for the new Freighter because it offers
the preferred mix of range and payload
capabilities for cargo operators. The first
777-200LR will enter passenger service in 2006.
The 777 Freighter will have a revenue payload
capability of 101 metric tons and will
accommodate 27 standard pallets (244 x 318 cm)
on its main deck and 10 in its lower cargo hold.
It can fly 9,630 km with a full payload and
market-preferred cargo load density. Delivering
the lowest trip cost of any large freighter, the
777 Freighter will meet QC2 noise standards for
maximum accessibility to noise-sensitive
airports. |
