WOW
Check out these wild Boeing 787-9 maneuvers you’ll hopefully never have to experience
Boeing has a new gigantic Dreamliner ready to fly you to a hot destination, Engadget reports, and the company decided to demo the longer 787-9 variant at the Farnborough Airshow in London. To highlight the new aircraft’s powers, 787-9 pilots performed various extreme maneuvers, like steep takeoffs and high-bank turns off the ground – or the kind of airplane action you’ll hopefully never have to experience yourself – with Boeing recording the whole experience on video.
The demo flight was performed with a very light load on board, with pilots showing off airplane capabilities that aren’t likely to be actually used during regular flights.
The 787-9 is expected to start commercial service this fall, with Air New Zealand being one of the first airlines to rely on Boeing’s new Dreamliner.
