The Boeing 787 Dreamliner marks a turning point in commercial air travel. The 787 is among today's most fuel-efficient aircraft, consuming 20 percent less energy than the popular 767. It is constructed of composite materials throughout, making the 787 far lighter than other similarly-sized aircraft. The 787-9 features further improvements including a lengthened fuselage, increased fuel capacity, and increased maximum takeoff weight. The -9s range is so great that it is used on nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Melbourne.
When completed, this model measures about 314mm long and has a wing span of about 301mm. Parts come molded in white. Includes decals.
