In fact, the length of the passenger version of the aircraft was brought into line with the length of the transport version.
Boeing has updated the characteristics of the passenger version of the Boeing 777-8 aircraft – now they are aligned with the characteristics of the transport Boeing 777-8 Freighter.
Boeing “stretched” the passenger version of the Boeing 777-8.
The Boeing 777-8 Freighter was completely declassified last year, then the parameters were surprising with a length of 70.9 m, which was 1.1 m more than the passenger version. Now the length of the passenger Boeing 777-8 is 70.9 m – this is reflected in the parameters on the official website.
But the manufacturer not only increased the length, but also increased the capacity: instead of 384 passengers, the “stretched” Boeing 777-8 can accommodate 395 people. The flight range also increased: from 16,170 to 16,190 km.
