The private jet version of the Boeing 787 can cost more than $200 million and fly over 18 hours. Take a look at some its most luxurious designs.

• The Boeing Business Jet 787 is the private jet version of Boeing's bestselling 787 Dreamliner.
• The Dreamliner kicked off a next-generation revolution with its fuel-efficient engines and aerodynamically-friendly features.
• The private variant of the jet costs upwards of $200 million and fly to nearly any city on Earth non-stop.

The 787 Dreamliner is one of Boeing's most popular twin-engine wide-bodies thanks to its fuel efficiency, lower operating costs, and passenger-friendly amenities, which have proven to be endearing qualities for airlines and private owners alike.

As with all of its bestsellers, the manufacturer also offers the aircraft as part of its Boeing Business Jet line-up, which caters to the ultra-elite that require airliner-sized private jets when they travel. Unlike its wide-body siblings, however, the 787 Dreamliner can make its flyers feel good about taking to the skies in a flying mansion thanks to fuel-efficient engines and aerodynamically-friendly features that lower overall fuel consumption.

With a $200+ million price tag, the business jet variant of the Dreamliner can currently be found flying in the fleets of high-end charter operators, national governments, and billionaires with cash to spare. The government of Mexico currently has a 787 in its fleet, valued at around $130 million, that it is currently trying to sell as part of a government spending reform initiative under President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

In the airline world, the Dreamliner can typically hold upwards of 200 passengers, depending on configuration, which leaves a lot of room to work with when a private owner decides to purchase the plane. Among the three Dreamliner variants on offer, the average space available is around 2,500 square feet.

Take a look at some of the designs that firms have dreamt up just for the Dreamliner.

The Boeing 777 Freighter (777F), which entered service earlier this year, brings efficiency to long-haul operators while offering the advanced features of the 777 family. Designed to fill the need expressed by cargo operators around the world, the 777F is an efficient, long-range, high-capacity freighter.

By providing more capacity than any other twin-engine freighter, the 777F brings new levels of efficiency to the long-haul market.

The range capability of the 777F provides significant savings for cargo operators. It enables them to take advantage of fewer stops and associated landing fees, less congestion at transfer hubs, lower cargo handling costs, and shorter cargo delivery times. The new freighter also integrates smoothly with existing cargo operations and facilitates interlining with 747 freighter fleets.

This article provides an overview of the 777F, including its heritage, freighter capabilities, range and capacity, twin-engine design, and ability to fit into existing cargo operations.

777 HERITAGE

Launched in May 2005, the 777F inherits the same basic design and flight charac­teristics of 777 passenger airplanes but is designed specifically to transport cargo. It also shares many of the 777 family’s advanced features, such as a fly-by-wire design, an advanced wing design with raked wing tips, and a state-of-the-art flight deck (see fig. 1). It is powered by the world’s most powerful commercial jet engine, the General Electric GE90-110B1.

UNIQUE FREIGHTER CAPABILITIES

The 777F has been specifically designed as a freighter, with additional strengthening in key structural areas, including:

• New monolithic aluminum floor beams.
• Rigid cargo barrier located in the forward section of the airplane.
• Strengthened fuselage, especially in the area of the main deck cargo door.

How Much Does The Boeing 777 Cost

Other design enhancements include:

• Enhanced, lightweight cargo-handling system with built-in test equipment that continually monitors the operational health of the system.
• Modified environmental control system.
• An advanced maneuver load alleviation system that redistributes the aero­dynamic load on the wing during non-normal flight conditions, reducing the load on its outboard portion (see fig. 2). This allows the 777F to operate in a wide variety of flight environments without compromising payload capability.

The 777F also features a new super­numerary area, which includes business-class seats forward of the rigid cargo barrier, full main deck access, bunks, and a galley (see fig. 3).

The airplane’s design reflects information and feedback that Boeing gained at freighter working group meetings held with 20 air­lines and cargo operators. Boeing’s plan was to ensure that the 777F would operate with procedures and handling similar to other 777 variants. The result is a common type rating with 777 passenger airplanes and only minimal transition required and lower training costs.

RANGE AND CAPACITY

With a maximum takeoff weight of 766,000 pounds (347,450 kilograms), the 777F has a revenue payload capability of more than 226,000 pounds (102.8 metric tons). It can fly 4,880 nautical miles (9,038 kilometers) with a full payload at general cargo market densities (more than 10 pounds per cubic foot), making it the world’s longest-range twin-engine freighter (see fig. 4).

The airplane has been engineered to have essentially the same landing charac­teristics as the 777-200LR (Longer Range), despite a maximum landing weight that is nearly 17 percent heavier (575,000 pounds; 260,810 kilograms).

The 777F accommodates 27 standard pallets (96 by 125 inches; 2.5 by 3.1 meters) on the main deck. The industry-standard 10-foot-high (3-meter-high) pallets are accommodated by the large main deck cargo door. The lower cargo hold has the capacity for 10 pallets, as well as 600 cubic feet (17.0 cubic meters) of additional bulk cargo (see fig. 5).

THE UNIQUE ECONOMICS OF THE 777F

The 777 family has an established history of twin-engine efficiency, with lower fuel consumption, maintenance costs, and operating costs.

The 777F extends these advantages to cargo operators, giving them the lowest trip cost of any large freighter, as well as excellent ton-mile economics. The freighter is expected to offer a 17 to 28 percent fuel-per-ton advantage to other freighters. The 777F has range, payload, and operating economics superior to any existing airplane freighter.

Its fuel economy also provides environmental benefits because lower fuel consumption means lower carbon emissions. The 777F also meets London-Heathrow noise standards (QC2) for maximum accessibility to noise‑sensitive airports.

The high commonality of 777F airplane systems — such as flight controls, hydraulics, and landing gear — with 777 passenger airplane systems takes advan­tage of existing maintenance infrastructure (i.e., parts, ground support equipment, task cards, training) at the airline operator.

COMPLEMENTS EXISTING BOEING FREIGHTERS

The 777F has been designed to integrate smoothly with existing cargo operations and facilitate interlining with 747 freighter fleets. Cargo operators can easily transfer 10-foot-high pallets between the two models via the large main deck cargo door.

SUMMARY

The 777F is Boeing’s response to strong demand from cargo operators around the world for an efficient, long-range, and high-capacity freighter. By providing more capacity than any other twin-engine freighter, the 777F brings new levels of efficiency to long-haul markets. At the same time, its similarity to previous 777 models and ability to facilitate direct-transfer shipments with 747 freighter fleets make it easy to integrate into an operator’s fleet.
