1st 787 In the flesh

Thanks for the reference to the pics. Hmm...was led to believe from previous publicity pictures that the wings are more curved than I have seen here.

3-3-3 in Y?

I thought that the fuselage width was closer to a 767, so was expecting 2-3-2 or 2-4-2... Am I mistaken?

From Boeing's webbie:

767 interior cabin width is 4.7m
787 interior cabin width is 5.49m
777 interior cabin width is 5.86m

So yeah, 3-3-3 is possible as shown. Although 2-4-2 is preferred.

When a BBC reporter filed a report from the inside of one, I liked how the window (which I agree is very large) progressively darkened at the touch of a button.
