5 Facts about Boeing

     If you don't memorize little useless facts (to some  people there not useless)about stuff like facts about airplane manufacturers, here are some of those facts.

  1. The 737, has carried over 16.8 billion passengers since it was availible to airlines. That's incredible since there are only around 7.5 billion people on earth(of course some people have flew on it more than once).

  2. Its been about 110 years since Wilbur and Orville Wright flew their glider 1 for the first time(2 other brothers in germany created the first gliders)... And in 1916 William E. Boeing created Boeing.



  3. The Boeing 787 reqiures around 2.3 million pieces(including seats and gear). That's a lot since the 737 only has 400 thousand.

  4. Everett Factory is the biggest building on earth by cubic feet and metres. Its about 472 million cubic feet(13.3 million cubic metres)





  5. Finally, this one is amazing. The Boeing can carry about 350-400 people but on time it carried 1,087 in the Operation Solomon Excavation. Even the biggest plane on Earth: The Airbus A380 can only carry around 850 people.

A tour of the Boieng 777

A tour of the Emirates Boieng 777     Today, we will take a tour of the Emirates  Boieng 777. This is one of the biggest Boieng models with a passenger capacity of around 315. So let's dive right into the tour.      This giant has a wingspan of 200 feet, more than half of a Airbus A380's wingspan. First, we will board the plane at the right side of the plane to come to First Class. A typical Boieng 777 has about 12 First Class seats and about 35 Buisness Class seats. You will get plenty of room if you fly by First Class.     Like I mentioned in the A380 tour, there is a foldable bed under the seat. You will get 3 full windows which is ideal if you want to look at something. There are countless small storage spaces like under your armrest and in front of that marble table-top. It's well designed in terms of space. There is a button pad on one of the armrests. The screen for First class is exceptionally big, especially when you compare it to Economy...
