Boeing 787 Dreamliner First Flight Webcast Online

Boeing 787 Dreamliner First Flight Schedule begins at 09:40 am Pacific time, 12:40 pm, Eastern, and 5:40 pm GMT. Actual liftoff is scheduled for the top of the hour (10am PST). This will be the first time in Boeing 787 Dreamliner webcast online.

The $166 million, 250- to 330-seat passenger aircraft with 865 orders and an estimated $150.6 billion backlog has been delayed six times over the last two years. The causes of the previous delays raise questions about whether the 787's technical problems have really been solved. After it was unveiled in 2007, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner has been ordered 840 times around the world. The first Boeing 787 Dreamliner is expected to be in its first commercial flight vial ALL Nippon Airlines in Japan by the end of 2010. We can just hope the Boeing Dreamliner maiden voyage will be a success. The whole point of the 787 is fuel efficiency and lower emissions, and the big hurdle for Boeing is that it's built with composite materials.
