Boeing Sonic Cruiser Wallpapers

Boeing Sonic Cruiser, photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org: The Boeing Sonic Cruiser was a subsonic concept airplane proposed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in 2002. Its distinguishing feature was to be its high-subsonic cruising speed, considerably faster than conventional jet airliners. [br]This is the airplane that airline customers around the globe agree will bring the best value to an industry in need of improved performance. The advanced technologies that allowed the Sonic Cruiser configuration to provide 15 to 20 percent faster flight at today's efficiencies now will be used to bring 15 to 20 percent lower fuel usage at the top end of today's commercial jet speeds. Boeing believes that in the future airlines will again be interested in faster flight and we will be ready with a concept and technologies to meet this need. These materials are presented for those interested in understanding the work that was done on the Sonic Cruiser prior to Dec. 20, 2002. [br]In the end, most airlines favored lower operating costs over a marginal increase in speed, and the project did not attract the interest Boeing had been hoping for. In fall 2002, Boeing released artwork of a notional "7E7" concept aircraft, which would become the Boeing 787. The Sonic Cruiser project was finally abandoned by December 2002, in favor of the slower but fuel-efficient Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
