The Boeing 777-300 is development of the baseline Boeing 777-200.The fuselage is stretched by 10,2 meters (33ft 6in). Available engine options for the Boeing 777-300 are Pratt & Whitney PW4090 & PW4098, Rolls-Royce Trent 892 and General Electric GE90-115B (-300ER). The American Airlines Boeing 777-200ER featured here presents the airline's new Premium Economy product. The aircraft is configured with seating for 273 in three cabins including Business Class - featuring 37 seats that transform into fully lie-flat beds, Premium Economy - featuring 24 recliner-style seats plus additional legroom, and the Main Cabin Economy Class - featuring 66 Main Cabin.

Long-Range Jetliner

DESCRIPTION:
What eventually became the 777 project began when several airlines expressed desire for an airliner with a capacity in between the 767-300 and 747-400. The 777 is designed for both intercontinental and transcontinental routes and is targeted primarily at the Pacific rim market. The design is typical of previous Boeing airliners except it is equipped with only two engines, unlike the transcontinental 707 and 747.

To achieve flight certification for the twin-engine layout on long flight over oceans, Boeing had to ensure new levels of reliability in engines, avionics, and the fly-by-wire control system as well as the ability to maintain level flight for three hours even with one engine inoperative. Like the 747, the 777 includes three powerplant options depending on airline preference, and these air-breathing engines are the most powerful ever fitted to any aircraft. To give some idea of the size of the 777, the engine nacelles are nearly as wide as the fuselage of the 737. However, some airlines requested the large airliner be able to use passenger gates designed for the DC-10 and smaller aircraft, so the outer wing panels are designed to fold upward on some models.

Five major variants of the 777 have been delivered to date. Base models are the 777-200 and stretched 777-300, and extended and long range models and a freighter have also been developed. Nearly 800 aircraft had been built by July 2009 out of more than 1,100 ordered.
