Boeing 787 Dreamliner soars for first flight

On Dec. 15, 2009, the men and women of Boeing made aviation history with the first flight of the 787 Dreamliner, a super-efficient airplane that introduces a host of new technologies.

Thanks - We are delivering the first 787 to ANA later this year. ANA will develop their flight schedule soon after. Please see the description for the video "Boeing 787 to test for service readiness" for a link to ANA's web site with more information.

[@Boeing]

Yes, please do! Also, please check out our Boeing Stores Facebook page for more photos and news about Boeing.

This is a beautiful plane, an exquisite design! I love when the Boeing crew started shouting and clapping... nice video!

[@Chris-hq7nl]

That's a beautiful airplane. You can tell that machine wants to fly.

[@phil123711]

Beautiful aircraft.

[@MaximusSeneca]

mann i love these planes

[@italianamiei]

What a gorgeous plane!

[@TheMarcogoon49]

such a beautiful airplane

[@jonny2k100]

Fantastic job Boeing, a truly gorgeous plane that I will hopefully be travelling on if Thomson Airways gets their plane soon. The 747 and 737 have got to be the most popular passenger planes with airlines around the world, without a doubt the 737 and 747 are the most recognisable aircraft of the modern aviation era, and I have to say that I'm extremely pleased to see that you are improving them with the 737 MAX, 747-8 Intercontinental and of course the truly gorgeous 787 Dreamliner

[@glennfam4554]

Wow! So amazing!

[@FrenzyProject37]

I want boeing 797 :D

[@coloradobikers]

amazing and beautiful aircraft can be no other than Boeing

[@SolCooper]

Boeing--you're so awesome!!! I love all your models and every flight aboard them because I know that they are built with magic!

[@DeepWhiteMusic]

omg its so beautiful!

[@PauloSergioMDC]

It is a beautiful airplane -- #TDIH, Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner Maiden Flight, December 15, 2009

[@chickengrasshead]

What a beautiful aircraft and video. Boeing's the best! Mind if I ask, what song is this?

[@cpmagicdude]

Do the landing gears go up?

[@gfmoreira]

This is the plane of the boss.

[@jonny2k100]

I know that there are three different varieties of the 787 passenger Aircraft, the 787-8 Dreamliner, 787-9 and the 787-10, from what I understand these numbers relate to the overall passenger capacity of the aircraft and I was wondering as to whether or not you would be able to provide me a list of the confirmed orders for each variation and which airlines have placed these orders. I would be truly grateful :)

[@Magnus44711URI]

Why was the gear always down?

[@janselkennethtolentino8269]

Im an airbus fan but this plane is awesome good job boeing and airbus

[@PilotStudiosChannel]

This is boeings channel. Go away you Airbus fan.

[@ROBLOXvideomakers100]

How do you guys make these big planes?

[@Kievo13]

how much Decibel does the 787 produce?..

[@KarimLaaiadiVlogs]

They made it !! They could dot it !!

[@JoDoughMoo]

nice airplane... can you please tell me when is 787 first commercial flight ?

[@johneddy98033]

@ja60370, I have a feeling it won't be long.

[@Solunex]

Ummm...... 2017???

[@asklotghaahtt1498]

But you are mistaken when you have made in the plane of dreams where to place the legs very close to the dining table .. ... When the chair turns into a bed is not comfortable because what is required to table rises slightly

[@jefferyjin5551]

I have a question, I can see a cone dragged by vertical stabilizer of the plane. What is that?

[@crewsd]

It helps to get a very accurate measure of airspeed.

[@matatanXtreme]

Jeffery Jin Static pressure sensor. used to measure accurate airspeed and compare with pressure being measured at the fuselage mounted static ports.

[@270WeaMag]

Great videoooo...

[@chuckwin100]

I was just wondering why at the rear of the engine cowling there is serrated edges?

[@jefferyjin5551]

for fuel efficiency and noise reduction.

[@jamesbrian3661]

4 engines a380 or 747 8 have better performance in landing and take off. In air much the same as 787 9. I will like to ride 747 9 in the future.

[@JesusPappa7]

Algún día.. =)

[@caribbaviator7058]

wow

[@AFOVIDIUS]

can we share this on facebook?

[@dodgingdaniel]

Boeing first flight= suites and ties Airbus first flight= Jumpsuit and parachute

[@TactileCoder]

Safety protocol for test flights.

[@caribbaviator7058]

if i were working for your company i would have plan on building a faster lighter fuel efficiency with less noise impact strictly for your company but i am just a kid

[@thibeau009]

why is he flying with his gear up

[@MrBadigard]

R.I.P quality.

[@MultiGrumman]

Начало:)...

[@davemartin8398]

Gear down inflight on a promotional video ? Hmmm I think performance would have been optimum. Bad practise in anyones book.

[@galaxymode]

u mean the a320 air show.

[@archeraviation6365]

A350 is better

[@TheGeilosau]

Airbus is better just saying

[@matatanXtreme]

GringoshHD just kidding you mean

[@krugerfuchs]

Airbus is crap

[@cooltwittertag]

+Kruger Fuchs No ist not. Both are good.

[@cooltwittertag]

+Linus Kontenak *it's

[@andrewanane9715]

+Linus Kontenak Airbus is the best. Airbus is just awesome, something like Boeing can't be compared to Airbus.

[@andrewanane9715]

it's so stupid why Boeing made the 787 and 747, it just wasted their money 😂😂, am glad Emirates bought none.

[@frank1928]

Well, it's not for good airlines like Emirates, but for airlines needing an update on the 767, cause A330-300 is beating the 767. And I already told you why they made the 747-8.

[@gavcom4060]

Why did you use AM instead of I'm??

[@andrewanane9715]

Gav Com Because it's not supposed to be your business.

[@brunosoares.6077]

Warning Boeing A330neo is coming.......... Airbus is the best

[@matatanXtreme]

Bruno Suárez Boeing 787 orders 1100. A330 orders 145. Yeah, surely a warning to Boeing that Airbus is falling behind.

[@FinHDGaming]

Bruno Soares More like warning boeing that Airbus company is going to fail to try to beat you again

[@alancats]

+Bruno Soares Your comment is so unbelievably childish. As if it isn't possible to respect both companies? There are four major manufacturers of passenger aircraft and competition has been good for the industry and for passengers. Do grow up, already...

[@ThatBoomerDude56]

A350 (not A330) is comparable to the 787. - 787 orders: 1140 - A350 orders: 775 (even though they started 3 years later) Both companies are doing just fine. Also: Both companies use engines and nacelles from the same suppliers for their aircraft models.

[@brunosoares.6077]

a350 compares to 777x and a330neo compares to 787
