Boeing 787 Dreamliner
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a long-range, mid-size wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner developed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Its variants seat 242 to 335 passengers in typical 3-class seating configurations. It is Boeing's most fuel-efficient airliner and is a pioneering airliner with the use of composite materials as the primary material in the construction of its airframe. The 787 was designed to be 20% more fuel efficient than the Boeing 767, which it was intended to replace. The 787 Dreamliner's distinguishing features include mostly electrical flight systems, swept wingtips, and noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles. It shares a common type rating with the larger Boeing 777 to allow qualified pilots to operate both models. The 787 Dreamliner's range is 4,260 to 7,180 nautical miles. Taking into account no adverse weather conditions or tailwinds which could negatively impact flying time... the average cruising speed, it would be possible to fly from JFK to St. Petersburg in approximately 7.56 hours!
Passengers: 330
Cruising speed: 567.31 mph
Wingspan: 197 feet
Maximum speed: 592.79 mph
