Is The Boeing 787-8 A True 767 Successor?

  • Some have suggested that the Boeing 787-8 is small enough to fill in the niche left vacant by the Boeing 767. With airlines like American Airlines ordering the type to replace the 767, is the smallest Dreamliner actually the closest ‘spiritual successor’ to the forgotten type?

    • @menglv2954
      @menglv2954 4 роки тому +4

      @col loc Not entirely ture. B757's sales were dried up and ceased production before cross Atlantic single aisle aircraft becomes a thing. And a re-engined B767 will be competing head to head with the 787, which is totally not acceptable commercially. The best and only choice for Boeing is still the NMA project which slots right between A321XLR and A330-800, although that's not coming any time soon.

    • @widget787
      @widget787 4 роки тому +2

      The A330-900 is way too large and the -800 has the same problem as the 787-8: too heavy and too much range.

    • @chingweixion621
      @chingweixion621 4 роки тому +1

      @col loc perhaps you should look back in the history book. The A380 was delayed by some 3 yrs when it entered service in 2007. That means that its original EIS was 2004 which was also the same year the (B777NG) B777-300ER which can seat some 400pax entered service. That means that the A380 was actually competing against the newest, largest and most efficient twin jet from boeing for sales at that time and the B777 certainly did not crush the competition which was the A380 as you were hoping for. Many airlines still ordered both the aircraft types with Emirates finally operating both types in the hundreds.
      One other thing you failed to realised is that the engine technology back then could not support the heavier stretched B777X airframe. The B777-300ER is already the largest possible twin jet aircraft with optimised range and payload capabilities derived from the B777 classic (B777-200ER). Stretching the B777-300ER back then and shortening its range will result in a suboptimal aircraft. It will flop like the non-er variant of the B777-300.
      Another point is that although Boeing did not publicly announce continuous improvement in their products like airbus, it does not mean that they did not have them. For one, Boeing's products improvement are mainly centered around the engines supplier, GE & RR. PIP are introduced from time to time as long as the product maintained in the mainstream. Secondly airbus only announced significant improvements or changes to the product lines. There are many more small improvements that are not worthy of a press conference. Likewise it is the same with boeing. Many small improvements hardly worthy of publication still gets implemented in the aircraft but these improvements could amount to something over the span of several years.
      So I hardly think even if Boeing did everything right, they would have crushed airbus. It is a duopoly market after all. The stronger the light the darker the shadow.

    I wonder if, in addition to the 787's better fuel efficiency, the carbon fiber fuselage and subsequently longer service life can offset the higher cost?

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but at 2:02 you mention the 767-300ER holds 261 pax in two classes.
    I believe that Is correct number for the standard range -300 but I think the -300ER had just 220 pax in a two class configuration.
    With this, the 300ER with 220 pax would rival the a331XLR on passenger numbers, range and comfort as id much rather fly long range in a 2-3-2 wide body configuration than a narrow body a321.

    The 767-300 does not seat 260 in a 2 class layout with a standard 2-3-2 economy. With 2-4-2 you could reach that but no normal fullfare Airline will do that. The 767-300 seats around 210 in 2 classes, the 787-8 around 240.
    The main reason why the 787-8 isnt the ideal 767-300 replacement on most routes (7-8 hour missions) is that the 787-8 is way too heavy (OEW one third higher than 767-300) and its MTOW/Range is too high. Of course the overall operating cost are around the same (20% better on per seat basis), but the seats need to be filled, and many markets where the 767 operates in terms of capacity its just the right aircraft. When Airlines deploy the 787-8 on such a route they would either fly empty seats or have to fill these seats with junk fares. This compared with the high purchase cost of the 787 will make Airlines look for other routes to operate the 787 where they can sell all seats with reasonable fares, but the original 767 market will be left empty.

    The 787 was designed as a higher weight plane compared to the 767, so it is not as efficient as a 767-300 successor as it could have been since the 787-8 is more like a afterthought shortening of the -9. In order to have a much more efficient substitute for the 767-200 and -300 they need a lighter clean sheet design with a smaller capacity and shorter range, but much lighter structure. It would probably even steal sales from the A321XLR.

  • @giacomogin8972
    @giacomogin8972 4 роки тому +1

    Actually the A330-800 neo could be even better. It has the same seating capacity of the 767 and a much further range than the 787-8. It should also be less expensive considering the the A330 neo program cost $2 billion against the $32 billion of the dreamliner. Anyway there have been very few orders for the A330-900 and almost none for the 800 variant so far...

      But fuel burn wise, 338 lags behind 788, and the gap can be as wide as 6~10%. Worse still, 339 isn't far behind per trip, i.e. significantly cheaper per seat. Airbus really need to sharpen their pencil to make it attractive.
      Meanwhile, 339 is much closer to 789/781 while being cheaper, and to some 9-abreast LCCs, 339 is unbeatable.

    What is the so called MMA ? medium/high capacity with 4000-6000 nmi range ? I believe this has been covered by A330 (preferred by LCC for human cattle mission) with its unbeatable economics and covered by A321XLR/Max 10 (preferred by full service airline). I still hope airframe manufacturers develop successors to 767-200 and A310, the true 'MMA'

    • @chingweixion621
      @chingweixion621 4 роки тому +1

      Definition of MMA (middle of the market aircraft) varies and is dependent on manufacturer. By virtue, its legacy definition is the 2nd/next family of aircraft after the single aisle aircraft with medium seating capacity and medium flight range. In the past single aisle are considered small aircraft for short haul operations. Hence by this definition both the B767 and A330neo qualifies as MMA. However moving forward, the way to define a MMA would become more complicated.
      The A330neo qualifies because airbus claims that they have no gap between the A321neo and A330neo In their product lineups. Consequently this makes the A330neo the 2nd/next family of aircraft after their single aisle in airbus lineups.
      On the boeing side, the B787 does not qualify as the MMA despite it being the rival of the A330neo because boeing defined the MMA to be the gap that exist in between the B737max and B787 which should have been filled by the rumoured B797 which is a 2nd/next family of aircraft after their single aisle family.
      This however would change again in the future when boeing's NSA comes about to replace the B737max.

    By fuel burn rate 767-400 comparable to 787-8🛫🤓

    Now, if Boeing builds a lower--weight 787-8 with a range of around 6,000 nautical miles (e.g., less fuel tankage and other weight savings), that plane would become a real 767-300 replacement.

      Sacto1654 the 787-3 was offered at launched which was exactly that but no one ordered it and it was cancelled

      @@jimmygee3219 The original 787-3 proposal was a plane with a range of only 3,500 nautical miles, designed for Japanese domestic routes. A lighter 787-8 with a range of around 6,000 nautical miles would at least be capable of flying from the central USA all the way to central Europe.

      Sacto1654 I was more thinking of the US domestic routes the 767 services currently that the current 787 variants aren’t really efficient on. But there’s room for a few more variants in there

    No the 787 is not a successor. Right now the 767 has no good successor right now. The 767 could fly between Miami and Paris and was small enough to fly between MIA and Orlando and be full both ways no plane does both of those flights profitably.

      @@karamsaviation2813 Well, gee, let's see. Two airplanes full of people DEAD! Boeing should have spent the extra money and redesigned the wing on the "Max" instead of what they did EVEN IF IT CAUSED THEM TO GO BANKRUPT! SAFETY FIRST! Also, they moved their home office back east,. At one time they were next door - arm and arm - with their Engineers! Once! AND they have major components made outside of the United States, depriving American workers of jobs. If they cannot do it right - don't do it at all.
