Boeing 787-8 Micro Cutaway Poster
Boeing 787-8 Micro Cutaway Poster, includes aircraft interior.
The 787-8 is the base model of the 787 family, with a length of 186 feet (57 m) and a wingspan of 197 feet (60 m) and a range of 7, 650 to 8, 200 nautical miles (14, 170 to 15, 190 km), depending on seating configuration. It is the only 787 variant, and the third Boeing widebody (after the 747SP and the 777-200LR) with a wingspan wider than the length of the fuselage.
The 787-8 seats 210 passengers in a three-class configuration. The variant was the first of the 787 line to enter service, entering service in 2011. Boeing is targeting the 787-8 to replace the 767-200ER and 767-300ER, as well as expand into new non-stop markets where larger planes would not be economically viable. Two-thirds of 787 orders are for the 787-8.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a long-range, mid-size wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner developed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Its variants seat 210 to 335 passengers. Boeing states that it is the companys most fuel-efficient airliner and the worlds first major airliner to use composite materials as the primary material in the construction of its airframe. The 787 has been designed to be 20% more fuel efficient than the 767 it is to replace. The Dreamliners distinguishing features include mostly electrical flight systems, a four-panel windshield, noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles, and a smoother nose contour. It shares a common type rating with the larger 777 twinjet, allowing qualified pilots to operate both models, due to related design features.
The aircrafts initial designation was 7E7, prior to its renaming in January 2005. The first 787 was unveiled in a roll-out ceremony on July 8, 2007 (7/8/7) at Boeings Everett assembly factory, by which time it had 677 on order; this is more orders from launch to roll-out than any previous wide-body airliner. By October 2013, the 787 program had logged 982 orders from 58 customers, with International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) having the largest number on order.
Development and production of the 787 have involved a large-scale collaboration with numerous suppliers worldwide. Final assembly is at the Boeing Everett Factory in Everett, Washington. Assembly is also taking place at a new factory in North Charleston, South Carolina. Both sites will deliver 787s to airline customers. Originally planned to enter service in May 2008, the project has suffered from multiple delays. The airliners maiden flight took place on December 15, 2009, and completed flight testing in mid-2011. Final Federal Aviation Administration (Fa) and European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) type certification was received in August 2011 and the first model was delivered in September 2011. It entered commercial service on October 26, 2011. FlightGlobal are the leading suppliers of cutaway and vintage military aircraft imagery. © FlightGlobal - All Rights Reserved

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Boeing 787-8 Micro Cutaway Poster showcases the intricate details of this remarkable aircraft, both inside and out. With a length of 186 feet and a wingspan of 197 feet, the 787-8 is the base model of the 787 family. What sets it apart is its unique feature - a wingspan wider than its fuselage length, making it only the third Boeing widebody to have this distinction. Inside, this variant can comfortably accommodate up to 210 passengers in a three-class configuration. It entered service in 2011 and has since become highly sought after by airlines looking to replace their aging fleet or venture into new non-stop markets where larger planes would not be economically viable. Boeing designed the Dreamliner series with fuel efficiency as a top priority. The use of composite materials in its construction makes it lighter and more fuel-efficient compared to previous models like the 767. In fact, Boeing claims that the Dreamliner is approximately 20% more fuel efficient than its predecessor. Other notable features include mostly electrical flight systems, noise-reducing chevrons on engine nacelles for quieter flights, and an aerodynamically sleek nose contour. Pilots who are qualified on both the Dreamliner and larger twinjet models like the Boeing777 can operate them interchangeably due to shared design elements. The development and production process involved collaboration with suppliers from around the world. Final assembly takes place at two locations: Boeings Everett Factory in Washington state and a newer facility in North Charleston, South Carolina. Despite facing some delays during development, including multiple testing phases for certification purposes, commercial service for this groundbreaking airliner began on October 26th, 2011. Since then, over two-thirds of all orders received by Boeing have been for various versions of this exceptional aircraft.
