Boeing has added a new aircraft to its Boeing 777X test fleet. This aircraft was built after 2020, and is the first one to have been built and flown after the test campaign started.
Boeing has resumed the certification test campaign of the Boeing 777X. Test campaign was paused after it discovered structural issues with a component that links the airframe and the engine together.
Another delay in the entry into service of the Boeing 777X has been noted. The first aircraft will enter service 13 years after the aircraft was first announced to the world in 2013.
Boeing has put a pause on the current certification test campaign of the Boeing 777X, after it discovered structural issues with a component that links the airframe and the engine together.
Boeing today showcased the 777X, their newest and largest widebody jet, currently under flight testing. The new jet is expected to be entering service in 2023.
Boeing’s First Flight of the 777X could not happen second day in a row, because of the inclement weather. Boeing will try to fly the aircraft again on January 25, 2020.
The new Boeing CEO, David Calhoun, made his first press remarks in a conversation with a select set of journalists. He answered questions on the delay of the 737 MAX, the upcoming 777X programme and the NMA project. I summarise for you the outcome.
The Boeing 777X is going to take to the skies for the first time on January 23, 2020, establishing a series of test flights that will eventually help the plane get certification in the days ahead for a 2021 Entry into Service.
