Boasting 20 percent fuel savings, while spewing out less greenhouse gasses, this jet will be a must-have in the ultra competitive airline industry. This fuel efficiency is enabled by a revolutionary light one piece fuselage constructed of carbon fiber and plastic composites. Improved passenger comfort was also a design priority on this jet.

The eyes of the aviation world will be fixed on Boeing here Sunday when the US aircraft giant unveils its 787 Dreamliner, the "green" passenger jet it hopes will revolutionize air travel. The mid-sized plane, which seats up to 330 passengers and is capable of flying long-haul routes using up to 20 percent less fuel while pumping out fewer greenhouse gases, will be rolled out for 300 gathered media. "By manufacturing a one-piece fuselage section, we are eliminating 1,500 aluminum sheets and 40,000 - 50,000 fasteners," Boeing said in a statement.Lower fuel-costs could in theory lead to cheaper long-haul travel, aviation industry analysts say. Richard Aboulafia, chief analyst with the Teal Group Corporation, said the Dreamliner was poised to revolutionize air travel if its projected rates of fuel-efficiency proved accurate. "If you look at it from an airline standpoint: you don't have a choice," Aboulafia told AFP. "If you don't have a 787-class aircraft and your competitor does, he can under-price you and out-profit you. The Dreamliner's other innovations include greater levels of comfort for passengers, with higher humidity levels within the cabin expected to reduce passenger dehydration. (news.yahoo)
