United Airlines is delaying the return of Boeing 777 planes after dozens were grounded last year due to an engine failure. United grounded its fleet of Boeing 777s carrying Pratt & Whitney engines I was one of the first people to walk onto the bridge, and here was my first look at the plane – a Boeing 777-300ER, which is the workhorse for long-haul routes. EVA Air Business Class Toronto to Taipei takes 15.5 hours, so I would have a lot of time to enjoy the service. Business-class seats on this route use a reverse herringbone seat The first aircraft to come out of the redesign was the Boeing 777-300ER. It would combine the 777-300s seats with the range of the 777-200ER, something much sought after by Air France for its international routes. It would be delivered to that airline only four years later on April 29, 2004, which is an impressive turn around time.

Most immediately, pilots will need to compensate for thrust imbalances. With one engine gone, the engine opposite the failed one will now cause The 777 is Boeing's most impressive plane. I think the 777 is Boeing's coolest plane, it uses the ge90 and ge9x, both have broken world record as the most powerful jet engines in the world. The ge90 for example boasts 110 000 horsepower per engine, adding up to 220 000 horsepower, that's almost as much as nuclear aircraft carrier. The 777 is the much bigger aircraft.
