Incorrect Triangle Pattern on Etihad Boeing 787-9 and Boeing 787-10

[Theod]

While flying Etihad’s Boeing 787-9 earlier, I noticed a (minor) discrepancy in the triangle pattern on the upper fuselage compared to the real aircraft.

In reality, the triangle pattern on the upper fuselage of Etihad’s 787-9 should be like this:

This problem is not limited to the 787-9 iteration, as the 787-10 in Infinite Flight also sports the same issue.

Interestingly, the Etihad liveries on the 777-300ER and A380-800 in Infinite Flight display the correct triangle pattern, as shown below:

While this is a relatively minor issue, I think it’s worth bringing up, especially with the upcoming 787-9 rework on the horizon. Hopefully, the livery can be revised to better reflect the real-world design. Thanks!

Apologies for bumping this thread once again, but I would also like to add that the minor inaccuracy also extend to the 787-9’s underbelly

Here’s the real world example, with credits attached on the bottom of the picture

Hopefully the new iteration in the upcoming 787-9 rework could address these issues.

keen observer must say!

Thanks a lot for the praise. I don’t know if it’s a gift (to be a keen observer) though, as once you notice it, it becomes an OCD to me haha.

Finally, a worthy opponent!
