A lightweight, high-performance composite fan could be crucial to Rolls-Royce's chances of meeting the thrust-to-weight ratio targets set by Boeing for its proposed 777X derivative development.
From the outside, Boeing’s EcoDemonstrator looks like any other American Airlines 737-800, but beneath the skin this is a flying testbed for near-, mid- and long-term technologies the manufacturer hopes will dramatically improve efficiency and safety while reducing noise and fuel burn.
Air India on Oct. 5 took delivery of the first Boeing 787 built at the airframer’s Charleston, N.C., facility—the first U.S. commercial jet airliner to be produced away from the Puget Sound or heritage West Coast sites. The aircraft is Air India’s third 787 and marks the 28th 787 delivered since entry-into-service. Some 25 of the model have been handed over during the course of this year, and the rate continues to accelerate as Boeing completes the refurbishment of earlier production aircraft.
