NEXT ERA - Introducing The Boeing 777X 

Wishing Boeing best of luck with their programmes.

Its incredible that this plane has a 12 years delay.

Surprised you only mentioned the folding wing tip, with regard to new improvements to the wings. The carbon-composite wings are significantly different from the metal wing legacy 777s and I'd argue (respectfully) that the entire wing is one of the most noteworthy improvements. Anyway, not meaning be overly critical. Great vid, regardless!

Hope Boeing can fix its quality control issues.

Can't wait for these to be flying in our skies.

Boeing said its windows are 29% bigger than those on the A350 and are placed higher on the fuselage to give passengers a better view and make the cabin feel bigger.

The GE9X weighs 21,230 lb / 9,630 kg, has a fan diameter of 3.4 metres, and is just over 4 metres wide. The 737 MAX fuselage is 3.76 metres wide.

correction: at 4:20, GEnX should be GE9X. great video anyway!

The newest pencil of Boeing

It's funny how PMDG(the only Boeing endorsed digital aircraft company) also had its delays, like the 777X, and in a few days from now, the 777-300ER study-level aircraft is coming out, which will capture the hearts of all pilots who own a flight simulator and fly on VATSIM(ATC). Once the 777 comes out on the 25th for MSFS 2020, all aviation enthusiasts will be able to fly the 777 as you would in a real hydraulic FAA Type VII simulator. Anyone reading this who purchases a yoke/throttle/pedals and MSFS will fall in love with the 777. This is definitely going to work in favor of Boeing.

Thank for this video DJ. This aircraft had as much to do with the demise of the 747 as Any, in my humble opinion and is well worth a video of its own. The ultra long range of the 777 8 will snare this model a few orders in future, Im picking. None less from our national carrier-- to fill the routes the Dreamliner has been struggling with, distance wise, therefore enhancing our great airlines credibility...

I saw this a few months ago at RSW in Fort Myers.

A real plane by a real plane maker

Even Seal Team six will not make me board this all new collection of quality escapes

For real I'd love Airbus to come up with a -2000 variant for their A350 range to compete with 777x. Whether they'd actually eventually do it...

There are many things that many RU-vid viewers don't know about Boeing aircraft production. Currently, Japanese companies are responsible for 21% of the Boeing 777's production, supplying the entire cabin fuselage except the nose section, as well as the center wing box. Japanese companies supplied 35% of the parts for the Boeing 787, including the design and manufacture of the main wings, and played an important role in its mass production. Regarding the production of the fuselage using carbon fiber, the Japanese side transferred the technology to Boeing's supplier. Regarding the production of the 777X, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was preparing to take over the manufacturing of the main wings, similar to the 787, but Boeing decided to manufacture them in-house. Japanese companies have sided with Boeing and achieved improvements in technology and production capacity, but the rise of Airbus has put them in a very difficult position. Japan Airlines, which until now has only used Boeing jets, has changed its main aircraft from the Boeing 777 to the Airbus A350, which is a big blow not only to Boeing but also to the Japanese aircraft industry. Boeing should have learned from the success of the 787.

Ty dj!!

4:16 its the GE9X not the GENX

Boeing version of TOGA: Take off, ground approaching.

Oh no not another Boeing commercial

.. The story told by Boeing might be a little different. Boeing was already far into the development of the 787, well, deliveries delayed to 2012. Boeing knew Airbus was going to respond to the composite 787 with an Axxx. However, the spec for the delayed 787 was fixed, BUT, Boeing was delivering around 80 x 777s a year, making lots of money. ... What Boeing decided to do was play chicken with Airbus, forcing Airbus to decide on a spec for the A350. Boeing could wait forever because of the huge number of 777s being delivered every year. Boeing dominated the market. Every year Airbus dithered on the spec for the A350, Boeing shipped another 80 to 98 x300ERs. ... Once Airbus announced the spec for the A350 as a size between the 777 & 787...well, Boeing also knew that Airbus had huge development costs for the clean sheet designed A350. The answer? Partner with GE (the cause for current delays in the program) for a new, super efficient 777 with engine... and a couple of other tricks. ... Once the 777X starts delivery, carriers will be able to have a WIDE mix of capacities ALL with crew commonality. Some fleets already carry all variants of the 787 & 300ERs. ... The capacity range for Air Canada, with all variants of the 787, starts with 255 PAXs on variant 8, all the way to 450 PAXs on their 300ERs. All with the same crews.

Ethiopian airline ordered upto 12 777X 9 this week

The 777X will be a very popular and successful aircraft for decades to come. Boeing will continue to refine the design and improve efficiency. The new management will ensure profitability. Looking forward to flying in the 777X.

I believe is Boeing fixing their problems, but the company definitely needs to get it together. They used to finish planes ahead of schedule. Now they’re a decade late.

When a new plane is already over a decade old and hasnt debuted yet is really sad

Personally my feeling this aircraft will be like the 380…a very ‘niche’ type aircraft…

All new Boeings shall undergo a D check with every rivet and bolt checked before being allowed to transport humans

Will this plane ever come out? It seems like it is always 2 years away, and god knowns how many issues it will have once first in service, until it is an actually airworthy plane, assuming Boeing is at least able to produce a plane that doesn't fall apart after fixing the design issues after each problem fundamentally. By that point who knows, we might see the A350neo first. The A350 has now been flying for nearly 11 years.

If Boeing continues to delay the certification for the 777X, airlines that have ordered the said aircraft may consider canceling the order for the said aircraft in favor of Airbus A350-1000 and A350 Freighter!

Yes, I do believe the new 777 has a long future 😍

Tooooo heavy

Boeing has a Quality Control problem with their existing planes. They are going no where until they can convince the FAA that Quality and safety are their top priorities

Brit here, same management at Boeing, so the 777x becomes the 777max? Imagine that fully loaded, crashing. Doesn't bare thinking about.

Interesting to know when this will be certified - is Boeing going to survive its current quality issues - Airbus is ahead and I think will be hard to catch

I realize fuel is the culprit, but what is this aversion to four engine designs? There's no need to go exotic. Just build them the way you used to. Also, each day that passes without a revival/replacement to the 757 is a descent further into the black hole of uncertainty.

nightmare for Airbus “fan-gals”😂😂😂😂😂

Next era. With a 1960s airplane. I think not.

Taking bets on what bit falls off first...

jumbo

Anyway 777 is old plane base.

now it feels pretty scary to ride boeing airplane, especially if it’s a new model..

Old before they even have delivered them.

Anything coming from Boeing with and x or a max you know its big trouble

748 gang here 👇

Seems a step backwards after the A380

Don’t see the reason for excitement over this aircraft. It’s not a generational innovation. It’s a rehash.

Boeing will not be able to sale plains like they use to due to the previous crashes and accidents. I guess no one wants to talk about that any more.

This is a horse not donkey 🐴

still don't feel safe with Boeing, I will stick to flying on airbus, thanks

half dead.

This plane will be Boeing’s biggest failure after the 737 max

777x is the most disappointing "new" aircraft release after the 737max

I want to fly on a 777X

This guy knows nothing about aviation he would know the 777 was born out of negotiations with UNITED. It wasn’t Qantas. It wasn’t introduced in 1995 it was in service in 1995
