The Dreamliner became the most bought up plane
5 April 2007Leading American manufacturer Boeing has received orders for more than 500 planes B-787 which is also known as a Dreamliner. Thus, B-787 became one of the most quickly bought up planes in the world.
The orders for Dreamliner have started to come since April, 2004. Thus till now B-787 has not made any flight. Tests of the liner will be started in August.
It has become known that 43 airlines from all worlds are among the customers of the plane. At present moment Japanese JAL Company has become the last customer. In view of its order Boeing has to construct 514 liners.
While no Russian airline did not order B-787. Earlier an opportunity of purchase of the American liners was declared by the Russian largest air carrier “Aeroflot”, however in the beginning of 2007 the company management has chosen A350 among the European Airbus Concern.
The main difference of B-787 from other long-distance liners is that it will consume up to 20 percent of fuel less, than modern planes do. Besides, the designing of the Dreamliner was completely conducted by means of a computer, without paper drawings. It has allowed Boeing to save significant financial and labor resources.
