First Intercontinental Flight for the 787


the boeing 787 'dreamliner' has just made its first intercontinental commercial voyage, between frankfurt and tokyo


with a flight this morning from frankfurt, germany, to tokyo, japan, the boeing 787 'dreamliner' for japanese carrier ANA
('all nippon airways') has completed its first intercontinental voyage, following initial flights in the late fall and winter of 2011.
in addition to vastly increased energy efficiency, a quieter engine, and a redesigned cockpit, the aircraft features a more
spacious, better pressurized cabin with LED mood lighting.

I don't usually get my aviation news from Design Boom, but this post has such a beautiful shot that was hard not to share it.
