Boeing 787 Dreamliner the first of a new generation of aircraft

A new age in air travel is set to be ushered in later this month when a 787 Dreamliner operated by All Nippon Airways lifts off from Tokyo to Hong Kong on its first passenger flight.

The Dreamliner, made by Boeing Co., represents a major technological shift in the way planes are made and operated. It's the first of a new generation of aircraft that despite more than three years of delay holds the promise to fly faster, farther and with more fuel efficiency and passenger comfort than predecessors.

787 Dreamliner News Update

Boeing is resuming its 787 certification program with the Federal Aviation Administration this week nearly two months after the program was put on hold due to a brief in flight fire. Flight testing resumed last month, and with FAA certification testing now taking place, Boeing also announced a revised delivery schedule for the long delayed first customer aircraft.

The airplane maker is now saying it expects delivery of the first 787 Dreamliner during the third quarter of this year. It did not provide a specific date. This means that launch customer All Nippon Airways won’t be getting its new carbon composite airplane until after July. The Japanese airline originally expected to be flying its new airplane in May of 2008. The delivery schedule has slipped 7 times since then including today’s new schedule.
