Finally Long Wait is Over; Air India's First Boeing 787 DreamLiner delivered...
The advanced Boeing 787 Dreamliner of Air India touched down at Delhi'sIGI Airport today, ending an over four-year wait of the struggling national carrier to add this next-generation airplane in its fleet.
The plane, painted in red and yellow livery of Air India, landed at the main runway of the airport at 1705 hours and was given water-cannon salute as it taxied to the bay.
The Dreamliner took 15 hours of flying time from Boeing's Charleston factory in South Carolina in the US to Delhi, plus a 90-minute stopover at Frankfurt for re-fuelling
Air India’s Dreamliner is equipped with 18 business class seats and 238 economy class seats.
Boeing Co raised its forecast for the Indian plane market earlier this month, saying the South Asian country would need 1,450 new aircraft worth $175 billion by 2031.
“India will have the highest passenger traffic growth in the world, higher than even China’s in the next 20 years.” - Dinesh Keskar
