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.

- Boeing lists GEnx-1B as an engine option for 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10; GE identifies the exact GEnx-1B model as the Boeing 787 engine. Individual thrust-rating variants remain separately unmodeled.
- Name
- 787 GEnx-1B option
- Notes
- This records the exact two-engine GEnx-1B installation option across the Boeing 787 family. It does not imply every 787 uses GEnx-1B, and it does not collapse individual GEnx-1B thrust-rating variants.

- FAA AD 2022-14-04 explicitly lists Trent 1000-AE3 engines installed on Boeing 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 airplanes and addresses conditions affecting both engines.
- Name
- 787 Trent 1000-AE3 option
- Notes
- UK CAA TCDS UK.TC.E.00054 identifies AE3 as an exact Trent 1000 model; FAA AD 2022-14-04 ties it to 787-8, 787-9, and 787-10 installations. This records an exact installed engine option and does not imply that every 787 uses AE3.
