Great job on the video - from a pilot ..and pre-pilot days, one who was lucky enough to get a 777 tour at Boeing decades ago, when a United Airlines sales manager.
Something no one seems to talk about are the cabin noise levels. The 777 is already very loud compared to the Dreamliner or any Airbus product. Now they made the cabin walls thinner by probably reducing the amount of insulating material…I wonder how that is gonna fair. Noise is incredibly fatiguing on long flights if you are exposed to it all the time.
@@MarcPagan True, but its a problem thats unnecessary in the first place. Also, as you know, for the crew it’s not that easy.

I find it kind of hypocritical to praise the comfort of the cabin with fancy LED lighting while neglecting one of the most basic aspects of comfort.

This was a great advertisement. You called 777x revolutionary when it is evolutionary. You called the GE engine best in class when it is actually a class of one.

@KlignEngineering hi there. I said planes in production, a380 and a330 are not in production. A330 neo is in production bit designed as a 2 4 2 configuration and airlines make it 3 3 3. However on the second generation 777, boeing is marketing it as a 3 4 3 configuration. Which makes it the narrowest wide body. A350 is 18.5 inches. A380 never had 16.5 inch 11abreast seating
@@rajsub7804Most a330neos are in 2 4 2 configuration. And there is no indication that that is about to change. Do you think the default configuration that most airlines will opt for is something other than the 3 4 3 config?
I'm no longer much of a Boeing fan, but I've always loved the 777 and hope the X is successful. Excellent video. I appreciated the disclaimer when showing a non-777X aircraft. So many videographers mix shots of many non-subject aircraft without providing clarification.
Boeing just needs to get their act together. I wish they stop showing it off and do what they need to get it FAA-approved and certified. They need to get them to airlines who really want the plane and made massive orders, but have been waiting for years after covid and with this plane faceing more delays year after year.
There is absolute zero indication so far that Boeing is getting their stuff together. Golden-tongue Calhoun saying stuff has zero weight for me, he’s been CEO long enough for things to get better. Yet, the board still has ZERO engineers in it. How are lawyers, MBAs and fund managers supposed to know how to fix production if they can’t even be bothered to invite one engineer in their midst?
A door blew out in a pressurization test. The order book is Emirates dominated. Looking at the order book, I am reminded of the A380 order book. I fear Boeing has produced a flying Edsel. IMHO.
Just don’t crash, explode, or depressurise…… 149% maximum stress test is suggesting they are cutting corners. Cathay bought it so it matters to my safety
And why exactly do you think that rehashing another 20 year old design will in some way “save” Boeing? As others have said this is a great advert but fact it ain’t.
Just don't mess this plane up, the way you did the 737. I want to believe in, trust, and be proud of Boeing again but what have they done to clear up their internal issues and that poisonous corporate culture that the former McDonnell Douglas executives brought with them in the merger ?

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the 777X program resumed production.' That's on top of the $6.5 billion write off.
I would like to see the 777-9 become such a success, that Airbus will decide to develop an A350-2000. Because even with the extra 4 inches, the 3-4-3 config in economy is dreadful.
Once again. If an artillery shell goes farther with a small engine that fills the void behind the shell... why isn't exhaust pushed out the tip of the wing. Not propulsion...void filling, that is fill the vacuum at the tip of the wing with exhaust.!!!???

It’s criminal that a 757 x had not come to the market. The 737 should be used to compete against the 321/320/220 Airbus. The 757 against the 330, and a rewinged 767 would completely place Airbus on its butt! When on earth is 777x going to be released ? It’s the right time to get this to market to replace the a380’s
Boeing is living on the scraps of orders that Airbus can't take. Airbus backlog is way beyond 2030. If it wasn't Boeing Commercial planes would have closed by now. Sadly new reality, get used to it.

It would help if the regulators cleared the way for the MAX-7 & MAX-10. Boeing continues to lead on the leading edge of tech knowledge and application.
And if that door would have ripped off the horizontal stabilizer what would have happened. They were just lucky sir. They were literal inches away from yet another disaster. This is only one issue Boeing has been struggling with ever since the implementation of the 787. They have been plagued by quality and control issues, labor issues, and management issues.
