I would like to start with the most elegant aircrafts Boeing 777 family which is my favourite aircrafts as you can understand from my blog’s name.
The Boeing 777 family is a complete family of jetliners that is preferred by passengers and airlines around the world. It is a long-range, wide-bodied and twin engined, jet airliners developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Boeing 777 has created long-term successs for airline companies worldwide with combining the superior range, fabulous fuel efficiency and passenger-preferred comfort. 777-300ER offers to operators an incredible opportunity to increase their success. Boeing 777 family has widen the family with adding five passenger and a cargo airplane since Boeing come into use in June 1995. The advantage of Boeing family to airlines is that a big market share and mutual benefit.
BOEING 777 FAMILY
The market-leading 777 family consists of six airplanes: five passenger models, with the ability to fly point-to-point nonstop to bypass crowded and busy hub airports, and a freighter model. Since its entry into service in June 1995, Boeing has expanded the 777 family to five passenger models and a freighter version.
The benefit to airlines is a family of airplanes offering broad market coverage and commonality. The 777 seats from 312 to 388 passengers in a three-class configuration with a range capability of 5,120 nautical miles (9,480 km) to 9,290 nautical miles (17,205 km). The 777-200 carries 312 passengers with a range up to 5,120 nautical miles (9,480 km). The 777-300 carries 388 passengers with a range up to 5,845 nautical miles (10,820 km). The 777-200ER (Extended Range) carries 314 passengers with a range up to 7,510 nautical miles (13,900 km). To offer airlines additional flexibility in serving nonstop routes, Boeing introduced two new longer range 777 airplanes.
In May 2004 Boeing delivered the first 777-300ER, which carries 386 passengers with a range of 7,825 nautical miles (14,490 km). In February 2006, Boeing delivered the first 777-200LR Worldliner (Longer Range), which carries 314 passengers up to 9,290 nautical miles (17,205 km). The 777-200LR, as the world’s longest-range commercial jetliner, is capable of connecting virtually any two city pairs around the globe.
In May 2005, Boeing launched the 777 Freighter. Based on the 777-200LR platform, the 777 Freighter flies 4,900 nautical miles (9,070 km) with a full payload at general cargo market densities — making it the world’s most capable twin-engine freighter. The airplane entered service in February 2009.

FEATURES
Wing Design
The advanced wing design for the 777, with a span of 199 feet 11 inches (60.9 m), enhances its ability to achieve higher cruise speeds, climb quickly and cruise at higher altitudes than competing airplanes. It also allows the airplane to carry full passenger payloads out of many high-elevation, high-temperature airfields. Raked 6.5-foot (1.9-m) wingtips have been added to the 777-200LR and 777-300ER to improve the overall aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. The raked wingtips help reduce takeoff field length, increase climb performance and reduce fuel burn.
Twin-Engine Design
Three engine manufacturers developed more efficient and quieter turbofans to power the 777. General Electric offers its GE90 series, Rolls-Royce offers the Trent 800 series of engines and Pratt & Whitney offers the PW4000 series. For the longer range 777 models and the Freighter, GE is the exclusive engine supplier with its GE90-115B and GE90-110B. All three engine types offer excellent fuel efficiency. Key factors in this performance are new, larger-diameter fans with wide-chord fan blade designs and bypass ratios ranging from six-to-one to as high as nine-to-one. This compares to the typical five-to-one ratio for the engines of previous twin-aisle jets.
Award Winning Cabin Design
In addition to being one of the most spacious passenger cabins ever developed, the 777 interior offers operators unsurpassed configuration flexibility. Flexibility zones have been designed into the cabin areas specified by the airlines, primarily at the airplane's doors. In one-inch increments, galleys and lavatories can be positioned anywhere within these zones, which are pre-engineered to accommodate wiring, plumbing and attachment fixtures. Passenger service units and overhead stowage compartments are designed for quick removal without disturbing ceiling panels, air conditioning ducts or support structure.
A typical 777 configuration change is expected to take as little as 72 hours, while such a change might take two to three weeks on other airplanes. Large overhead compartments provide passengers with increased stowage capacity. Outboard as well as center stowage units are designed to open downward for convenient loading. When closed, they fit neatly into the streamlined contours of the interior architecture and allow ample overhead clearance. For improved, more efficient in-flight service, the 777 is equipped with an advanced cabin management system. Linked to a computerized control console, the cabin management system assists cabin crews with many tasks and allows airlines to provide new services for passengers, including a digital sound system comparable to the most state-of-the-art home stereo or compact disc players.
Surveys of passengers on long-range routes continue to show that those passengers prefer to travel on the 777 compared to other available airplanes. Readers of Executive Travel magazine voted the 777 as “Best Aircraft Type” for six years in a row (2008-2013). The awards were based on the votes of the publication’s readers, who selected their top choices in 54 categories over a six-month period.
