5Composite Solutions Applied Throughout the 787
6Composite is the Smart Choice
- Fatigue and corrosion resistant
- Higher strength-to-weight ratio reduces weight
- Enables enhanced passenger comfort
- Allows larger, more integrated structure
- More future growth potential than metals
7Propulsion Systems FeatureKey Technologies
- Engine and nacelle features
- Higher bypass ratio
- No-engine-bleed systems architecture
- Low-noise nacelles with chevrons
- Laminar flow nacelles
- Interchangeable (at the wing)

12The 787 Will Be an Environmental Leader and
Subject to Minimum Environmental Taxation
- Focus on life cycle management and -economics
- Less fuel used, lower emissions
- Quieter for communities, crews, and passengers
- Fewer hazardous materials
- Less waste in production
13Escalated Scheduled Maintenance Intervals
14Maintenance Works Both Sides of the Value
Equation
- Over 12 years the 787 advantage
- 113 additional flights
- 20 fewer line checks
- 3 fewer base checks
- 1 less structural check
- Superior Revenue Availability
15Maintenance Works Both Sides of the Value

16Standardization Keeps Overall Costs Down
- Robust catalog
- Airline designed to easily accommodate
pre-designed offerings - Interior configuration can happen later in the
design process - Standard Boeing flt deck philosophy
- Dual HUD and EFB
- Common training, Easier transitions (PQP, STAR)
- Reduced infrastructure

The Fuel Cell Airplane
- Project Objectives Rationale
- Aim To demonstrate for the first time that a
straight level manned flight can be achieved with
fuel cells as the only source of power - RD effort Hands on integration of novel
technology on a prototype - The engine of a motor-glider (Diamond HK36TTC
Super-Dimona) has been substituted by a PEM Fuel
Cell/Li ion Battery hybrid power source that will
drive an electric motor rotating a variable pitch
propeller - The battery will only be used for take off
climb - The fuel is compressed hydrogen gas (5,000 psi)
stored in a light-weight composite tank - Current Status
- Glider airframe modified for accommodating new
systems - Subsystems manufacturing almost completed and
on-board installation on-going
