Boeing 787 Dreamliner Family

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a family of long-range twin-engine widebody airliners built extensively from carbon-fiber composite structures. The 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 pair a common wing and systems architecture with different fuselage lengths and capacities, allowing airlines to serve long, relatively thin routes as well as higher-capacity markets. Large windows, lower cabin altitude, and electrically driven onboard systems distinguish the passenger design.
