Boeing 777-300
|
Compared with
the baseline Boeing 777-200 the 777-300 features
a 10,13 m stretch, comprising plugs fore and aft
of the wings. The longer fuselage allows seating
for up to 550 passengers in a single class high
density configuration. Boeing publicly announced
it was developing the 777-300 at the Paris
Airshow in mid June 1995. The 777-300 rolled out
on September 8 1997, followed by first flight on
October 16 that year.
The 777-300ER
is the first of two new Longer-Range 777 models.
The 777-300ER and the 777-200LR (Longer Range)
were launched in February 2000 at the request of
airline customers seeking airplanes with
additional flexibility to serve the non-stop
routes that passengers demand.
The
twin-engine 777-300ER carries 365 passengers up
to 14.270 kilometers, and is capable of serving
such routes as Paris-Los Angeles and
Paris-Tokyo.
During the 777-300ER's 1,500-hour flight test
program, the airplane exceeded its original
design performance targets. As a result, the new
jetliner provides increased payload and range
capability over those promised to customers at
the time of the airplane sale.
The 777-300ER has updated avionic, electrical,
flight and environmental control systems. The
airplane's raked wingtips offer fuel efficiency
improvements and its semi-levered landing gear
permits takeoffs on shorter runways.
The 777-300ER also features the award-winning
Boeing Signature Interior, known for its ambient
lighting and easily accessible drop-down luggage
bins.
General Electric Aircraft Engines manufactures
the engines for both Longer-Range 777 models.
The GE90-115B turbofan is the world's largest
and most powerful commercial jet engine,
producing 115,000 pounds of thrust, currently a
Guinness World Record.
On Friday,
December 3, 2004 was the rollout of the 500th
Boeing 777 commercial airplane. The Boeing 777
the fastest-selling twin-aisle airplane ever,
will reach 500 airplanes delivered faster than
any other twin-aisle airplane in commercial
history. The 500th 777 is scheduled for delivery
to International Lease Finance Corp. and
operator Air France later this month.
