Boeing had spent a decade evaluating ways to create a substantially larger 747, before decide in November 2005 not to let Airbus off the hook too easily. Scoped under the name "747 Advanced", the stretch was launched as the "747-8" to reflect the naming convention around the number eigh...
Boeing estimated that half of the early 747 sales were to airlines requiring the aircraft's long range rather than its payload capacity. But though the 747 had the lowest potential operating cost per seat, this could only be achieved when the aircraft was fully loaded; costs per seat ...
Underwing Payload Hardpoint for a Medium-Altitude Long-Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This hardpoint is engineered to enhance the UAV's operational capability by supporting a variety of mission-specific payloads. uavcdrpayloaddroppingboeingproduct-lifecyclehard-point ...

All these changes gave the aircraft a boost to payload and range, and improved short-field performance.[16] 参考译文:最初的发动机舱采用了从727飞机外侧发动机舱中取下的推力反向装置。然而,它们被证明相对不够有效,并且在展开时会使飞机离开跑道。这降低了主起落架的下压力,从而减少了轮式刹车的效果。
值得一提的是,777X的概念设计图当中GE9X发动机外壳采用类似Rolls Royce Trent 1000、GEnx-1B(两者应用于787)、GEnx-2B(应用于747-8)以及CFM LEAP-1B(应用于737 MAX)相同的波浪尖刺状似般的蛋壳尾部造型,但由于GE9X发动机当中蛋壳空气阻力较大会比较耗油并强调较长航程而取消该设计,最终设计改为传统平滑设计发动机...
The first Boeing airliner to be designed totally using three-dimensional computer graphics, the 300-370-seat Boeing 777 remains the largest twin-engined airliner in the world, spanning the capacity gap between the Boeing 767 and 747. With an all-new fuselage section, new wings and an innovative...
I remember the Quantas 747 in the airshow at Oshkosh about 1991. Three crowd passes and then a max climbout to LAX where I could see the full 747 in plan view in the N sky. Was the Chief pilot of Quantas. Understand he was busted for exceeding the allowable de...
However Boeing clearly staes taht their will be no increase in thrust and/or empty weight which DEFINITELY means neither a “new wing” nor a MTOW bump of 20t. This would be a MAX. Reply keesje January 6, 2022 Be sure that is they want to increase payload-range to be more competitiv...
