Boeing completes Dreamliner family with first 787-10 delivery
Boeing delivered its first 787-10 Dreamliner to SIA Sunday, rounding out a family of lightweight jets on which the planemaker is betting its future. SIA, which expanded its order for 787-10s to 49 jets last year, plans to introduce the jet on services to Osaka, Japan, starting in May. The aircraft, which sells for US$326m at list prices, completes a line-up of 3 models starting with the 787-8 which debuted in 2011. All boast carbon-composite fabrication materials, fuel efficiency and new state-of-the-air filtration systems with higher levels of humidity in the air for long-distance flight. The 787-10's range is 11,910 kilometres. At 223 feet long, the aircraft is 18 feet longer than the 787-9 and seats around 330 passengers, 40 more than the 787-9 and 88 more than the 787-8. <br/>
