Cue tail strike 🛫

Takeoff is obvious, but I also imagine a really windy landing situation where it’ll be easy to get that nose above 5° trying to land. Time will tell if it becomes a big factor!

will fight with 787 10 for the tail striker of the year award!

I think B787-10 won’t reach that long. And I thought B78X model will be released first than A35K. 😊


Nice to see the Prototype. Love it!

I would say the 787-10 would tailstrike more because its body is closer to the ground, which shows the design is a little flawed.

No that’s still the 77W but only by 3in. The 777 still holds the widest fuselage twin jet award.

The A340 wins, period.

Then you probably don’t like the 787-10

Except the 747-8i is the longest aircraft passenger ever.

Except the Beluga isn’t a production aircraft.

We’re talking 40cm difference. Just the A340 looks a cooler longer because it doesn’t have 2 decks.

You are correct but it will hold the title for a while longer until the 777X-9 is built. It will be longer than the 747-8

So excited my favorite aircraft family has built a new member:)
