Boeing's Test and Evalutation Team Puts the 787-9 Brakes to the Test

[@Treetop64]

"It's disturbingly...unexciting." Exactly what you want to hear.

[@KabukeeJo]

Boeing, I wish you would build your Dreamliner planes with Gear/Tail or Nose HD cameras so we could see the so we can see whats going on outside the plane on the inflight entertainment system.

[@Jacksonkellyfreak]

There was a system like that on AA 191. The crash was the reason it was removed. The saw what they were going to hit and watched everything happen.

[@MrBigShot110]

This is just American Airlines' case, but they took cameras that allowed passengers to see what was going on ahead of them through the cockpit off of their planes after their flight 191 crash because passengers were basically able to watch their deaths coming at them. Like I said, this was just that airline, and I'm not sure if it's been done since, but that's usually the airlines' decision. I doubt Boeing would spend that much extra money on a cosmetic feature that I think a lot of people would pay attention to half the time.

[@Jacksonkellyfreak]

yea and in today's world flying is treated as a pain in the ass, not something special like it used to be, so I doubt anyone would pay attention to it.

[@JCmultiverse]

..great team of Aero engineers...well done..and thank you for your dedication

[@blampa]

Wonderful airplane, wonderful technology and world leaders in bringing the world closer together. Well done Boeing, a company that is at the pinnacle due to the devoted and passionate people who have dedicated their lives to excellence.

[@ChrissonatorOFL]

Very cool. I love the new 787's and the 747-8's. Very futuristic looking aircraft.

[@bundesautobahn7]

Gotta love those RTO tests at Edwards.

[@worldaviation4k]

I can't wait to do a full flight video on this aircraft like i do with the 777 and A380 :o)

[@joshuaoha]

That is so cool. Keep pushing the limit, keep making us safer. Thanks guys!

[@Wardog22476]

Exceptional job Boeing!!!!!!!!!!!

[@shotaroinagaki]

They must love their jobs!

[@thecoolpool1]

Very nice! you misspelled brakes in the description though.

[@pwkpilot]

You left out one very important piece of info. How much runway did the plane need to come to a full stop?

[@tymo7777]

"Boeing's Test and Evalutation Team" I guess the "t" in evaluation is silent.

[@BlueTaurianBull]

well done boeing..... to ensure safety of the public who will sit on these planes and trust their lives in your hands assuming you have done your job well....

[@sparkyplane1]

what is the thing they always have hanging from the tail?

[@BobaBuwan]

Awesome video!

[@JehanKateli]

How do I join the flight test and evaluation team?

[@giddi2000]

wow! wonderful work

[@elmar001]

What happened to the livery?

[@MichaelFlatman]

did they use thrust reverses or not

[@andycyyeung1]

no...all RTO tests are not allowed to use reverse thrust...just brakes

[@eliseoroman6638]

Very interesting and educational.

[@ahmadhadder9834]

Which Airport ? must be a very long runway

[@KabukeeJo]

These tests are not done at commercial Airports but on private ones owned by Boeing used specifically for testing. Airport runways are way too busy with commercial traffic.

[@mrpilottroll855]

At 0:05, "hayhaaaayyyy". WTF was that?

[@istranes]

Built in Charleston SC!!

[@RasAlGhul74]

thank you for testing these birds thoroughly before letting them fly into the sky. all of the costly $$ that go into the testings are justified when there are people lives are at risk.

[@JLJohnson]

Very cool

[@JeffFromTheIRS]

Where was this test performed?

[@kevinp8108]

The test was performed at Edwards Air Force Base near Lancaster California. One of the fire truck said "Edwards" on the side of the vehicle at 1:17. This is where the US military test their new fighter jets. Edwards AFB was also the alternate landing site for the Space Shuttle in case of bad weather in Florida.

[@JeffFromTheIRS]

Kevin P Thanks :)

[@samanthakersh2947]

[@mrpilottroll855]

This video would be much better if they actually showed the entire brake test. Less talking heads more reality, please.

[@pisittsaetan]

amazing!

[@zero2084]

why they don't continue taxing after the plane stop? i think they do it with the B777.

[@juaeduardovargas]

[@cnknguyen]

now lets compare this to the A380 RTO cert test hahah.

[@ichigouzumaki324]

Testing the air brakes... :-)

[@CrazyMrTim]

"disturbingly unexciting" lol

[@ntntdt]

Great

[@ZeldagigafanMatthew]

"distrubingly unexciting" that's a weird thing to say.

[@matthewchen2671]

Cool

[@covepac]

BOEING TEST AND EVALUTATION TEAN PUTS THE 787 CASTEL

[@TeemarkConvair]

if you want to see a classic "keystone cops" RTO search for "a380 rto" whos in charge there? wonder how they got past that test without some firemen going to hospital? "fuse plugs"? we don't need no stinking fuse plugs!

[@andrewanane9715]

thanks

[@unaccompaniedflyer7012]

Loved the female pilot in a male dominated industry. You go Boeing!

[@60sony]

all this new technology but neither boeing nor airbus are able/willing to build a efficient super sonic plane :/

[@DeesoSaeed]

With an oil barrel at $120 you won't see that happening

[@ahmaddeeb5481]

I can not belive that.... Is this Boing or what ?

[@JeffersonSheng]

First comment! I've been waiting for this for A LONG LONG TIME, and finally 787-9 you're coming

[@GeorgeNjero]

technology

[@jonoferguson22]

first

[@realityhitsmehardbro]

2:41 "Disturbingly unexciting"? Well, if passing with flying colors is disturbing to you, so be it. Perhaps she meant to say "anticlimactic".
