Two commercial planes have recently made their debut - the A380 and, more recently, the B787. These aren't the only new aircraft that airlines have recently placed orders for, but they are arguably the most unique and unlike other planes currently being produced.
Your assignment is to pick one of these planes. Discuss their history, their stats (including stats about the airplane, but also stats about standing orders, future orders, who has them, who is getting them) and why they are different from other planes. Also, discuss what you believe to be the plane's overall impact on 1) the manufacturer, 2) the competing manufacturer and 3) the industry. Finally, discuss the impact these planes may have on your career, if any.
Reminder: Assignment is due on Sunday. Entries posted after this due date will receive a grade reduction.
I noticed that the due date in the title says Oct. 3rd (Monday), but at the bottom it says Sunday. I posted mine on Monday. I am hoping this is a bank error in my favor?!
