Boeing launched the new 787 Dreamliner
US aircraft manufacturer Boeing has officially launched a new generation 787 Dreamliner passenger aircraft at its big factory in Everett, near Seattle, in the presence of thousands of guests.
The 787 Dreamliner has been Boeing's latest product since the launch of the Boeing 777 aircraft in 1994 and officially entered service in 1995.
According to the manufacturer, the 787 Dreamliner is the only commercial aircraft primarily made of hard carbon fiber material instead of aluminum like conventional planes and is also the most environmentally friendly aircraft ever assembled. . Boeing believes the product will open an era of new aircraft design and manufacturing.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner has outstanding advantages such as 20% fuel savings, low noise and a 30% reduction in maintenance costs for airlines. It is also dubbed the ' green ball machine ' when producing less CO2 than competitors by 20%.
The mid-range 787 will also satisfy the ' gods ' with larger windows and larger seats than the current aircraft.

Richard Aboulafia, a senior analyst, said: 'This is really a revolution. The 787 Dreamliner represents a major technological development in the way aircraft are built and how they work. '
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner has 3 types ranging from small to large with different passengers and range: 787-8 Dreamliner can carry 210-250 passengers with a range of 14,200-15,200 km; 787-9 Dreamliner carries between 250-290 passengers, a range of 14,800 - 15,750 km and a 787-3 Dreamliner with 290-330 passengers, a range of 4,600-5,650 km.
Although it was not until May 2008, the 787 Dreamliner was officially put into use, but it became the best-selling passenger plane in history. Boeing received 677 orders from 47 customers with a total value of more than $ 100 billion. Only Australia's Qantas airline has ordered 115 aircraft.
Boeing chose July 8, 2007 (according to the American way of writing August 7, 2007) as the new generation launch date. Just hours after its launch, the company has received 35 new orders. All Nippon Airways (ANA) is expected to be the first customer to receive the 787 Dreamliner with orders of 50 units.
