757亦因其高的爬升速度而被称为“火箭飞机”(Rocket Plane),在最大起飞重量的情况下,757能比其他商业客机在较短的时间内爬升至41,000英尺(12,000米)。另有一些航空公司都选用757来往气候较热和地势较高的目的地,例如墨西哥城,因为它在以上地方的性能亦比其他机型出色。基于以上情况,墨西哥总统亦选择757作为其行政...

Few observers now doubt that this unprecedented success has much to do with the plane’s composite-intensive design. At 50 percent composites, by weight, the 787 is in a class by itself. According to Boeing, the advantages of significantly increased use of composites go beyond the more obvious...
The company dubs its new, carbon-composite airplane the "Dreamliner" after an online competition with 500,000 entrants. December 2003 Boeing approves an initial version of the plane, with the temporary name 7E7. April 2004 Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA) becomes the launch customer with 50 ...
(as big as a smaller jet’s wing) will be made of carbon-fiber composite materials,and will be the largest such stnlCtures on any aircraft except the B-2 stealth bomber.该划线结构说“除了B-2 stealth bomber以外,A3XX是具有这种结构的最大的飞机”,这个句子才是真正的答案相关句,显然该句的...
