These long haul variants use 110,000–115,300 lbf (489–513 kN) GE90 engines and have extended raked wingtips. Those 777 Classics were powered by 77,200–98,000 lbf (343–436 kN) General Electric GE90, Pratt & Whitney PW4000, or Rolls-Royce Trent 800 engines. The original 777 with a maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of 545,000–660,000 lb (247–299 t) was produced in two fuselage lengths: the initial -200 was followed by the extended-range 777-200ER in 1997 and the 33.25 ft (10.13 m) longer 777-300 in 1998. It initially competed with the Airbus A340 and the McDonnell Douglas MD-11, both now out of production, and as of 2021 competes with the Airbus A350 and A330-900. It is the first Boeing aircraft with fly-by-wire controls. It is recognizable for its large-diameter turbofan engines, six wheels on each main landing gear, fully circular fuselage cross-section, and a blade-shaped tail cone. It can accommodate a ten–abreast seating layout and has a typical 3-class capacity of 301 to 368 passengers, with a range of 5,240 to 8,555 nautical miles (9,700 to 15,840 km). Longer range variants were launched on February 29, 2000, and were first delivered on April 29, 2004. The 777 entered service with the launch customer, United Airlines, on June 7, 1995. The prototype was rolled out on April 9, 1994, and first flew on June 12, 1994. The 777 was designed to bridge the gap between Boeing's other wide body airplanes, the twin-engined 767 and quad-engined 747, and to replace older DC-10s and L-1011 trijets.ĭeveloped in consultation with eight major airlines, with a first meeting in January 1990, the program was launched on October 14, 1990, with an order from United Airlines. The Boeing 777, commonly referred to as the Triple Seven, is an American long-range wide-body airliner developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The 777 is a low-wing twinjet the original -200 is the shortest variant.ġ,683 as of April 2022 based on deliveries The first Boeing 777 built, operated by Cathay Pacific in 2011.
