The type, which took over the role of three- and four-geared ones, surpassed them in terms of efficiency. Its several versions are capable of traveling 13-15 thousand kilometers, its capacity exceeds 400 people, its two huge engines can lift up to 350 tons. It has been the world's largest twin-engine airplane in the sky for 30 years. How was the Boeing 777 born in the mid-90s? What innovations did the engineers use? How did they create the fly-by-wire system and why did they debate for a long time whether to have a sidestick or a traditional horn rudder in the cockpit? How does the 74 meter long, 65 meter wingspan monster behave on the ground and in the air? This time, the focus is on the great favorite of aviation fans, the birthday triplet, about which Géza Zainkó, Aeropark aviation history researcher, and Getta-Giuriato Zafir, former Emirates 777 captain, tell us about.
