787 Dream Liner Sola Aviation Conference Sept 18-20,2006 Thor G. Johansen Technical Director Boeing - Europe
Configured for Success. 787 breaks new ground in Engineering, Materials, Assembly & Passenger Comfort. Features are Designed to Provide Record Low Level Operational Cost in its Class Breakthrough passenger cabin Enhanced flight deck Overhead crew rests Advanced wing design Advanced engines and nacelles Large cargo capacity Composite primary structure Innovative systems technologies
Compatible with Today’s Infrastructure 787-9 A330/340 787-8 767
Advanced Technology Contributions to 787 Operational EfficienciesDesigned with Extensive Airline Input for Optimum Operability, Reliability, Flexibility, Testability, Maintainability and Repairability Systems Engines Materials Aerodynamics
Composite Solutions Applied Throughout the 787 Other 5% Steel 10% Carbon laminate Composites50% Titanium15% Carbon sandwich Fiberglass Aluminum Aluminum20% Aluminum/steel/titanium pylons
Composite is the Smart Choice • Fatigue and corrosion resistant • Higher strength-to-weight ratio reduces weight • Enables enhanced passenger comfort • Allows larger, more integrated structure • More future growth potential than metals
Engine and nacelle features: Higher bypass ratio No-engine-bleed systems architecture Low-noise nacelles with chevrons Laminar flow nacelles Interchangeable (at the wing) Propulsion Systems FeatureKey Technologies GEnx Trent 1000

The 787 Will Be an Environmental Leader and Subject to Minimum Environmental Taxation • Focus on life cycle management and -economics • Less fuel used, lower emissions • Quieter for communities, crews, and passengers • Fewer hazardous materials • Less waste in production
Maintenance Works Both Sides of the Value Equation Over 12 years the 787 advantage: • 113 additional flights • 20 fewer line checks • 3 fewer base checks • 1 less structural check • = Superior Revenue Availability
Maintenance Works Both Sides of the Value Equation Maintenance Program: Fully MPD based or CMP/CMMP (80-20), GoldCare? Key Considerations: Operator’s Operations, Maintenance and Reliability Policies and Capabilities -Fleet Management -Continuing Improvement Processes -Non-Mandatory Modifications -Preventive and Corrective Maintenance -Maintenance Interval Utilization -Distribution of HT, CM and OC Components Operational Environment Airplane Utilization Airplane Configuration
Standardization Keeps Overall Costs Down • Robust catalog • Airline designed to easily accommodate pre-designed offerings • Interior configuration can happen later in the design process • Standard Boeing flt deck philosophy • Dual HUD and EFB • Common training, Easier transitions (PQP, STAR) • Reduced infrastructure
BOEING RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY EUROPE (BR&TE), SPAIN The Fuel Cell Airplane • Project Objectives & Rationale: • Aim: To demonstrate for the first time that a straight level manned flight can be achieved with fuel cells as the only source of power • R&D effort: Hands on integration of novel technology on a prototype • The engine of a motor-glider (Diamond HK36TTC Super-Dimona) has been substituted by a PEM Fuel Cell/Li ion Battery hybrid power source that will drive an electric motor rotating a variable pitch propeller • The battery will only be used for take off & climb • The fuel is compressed hydrogen gas (5,000 psi) stored in a light-weight composite tank • Current Status: • Glider airframe modified for accommodating new systems • Subsystems manufacturing almost completed and on-board installation on-going • Post integration functional tests scheduled for Jan 2007
BOEING RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY EUROPE (BR&TE), SPAIN The Fuel Cell Airplane • Project Objectives & Rationale: • Schedule: • Complete on-board installation – Oct 2006 • Bench tests – Jan 2007 • Ground tests & first flight – March 2007 • Approach: Work with European Partners & Spanish CAA • Size & weight reduction • Systems integration • On-board installation • Safety requirements • Specifications & tests protocols development for systems acceptance • Post integration tests, experimental airworthiness certificate, ground & flight tests protocols, flight manuals and public flight demos • Benefits of Work: Develop capability for integration of fuel cell systems in aerospace applications
