BOEING Co's highly anticipated - and long delayed - 787 jetliner made its international debut yesterday, landing in England as the star attraction at the Farnborough International Airshow.
The airliner, the first passenger jet to be largely built from lightweight and environmentally friendly composite material, is the first of the five test aircraft to leave US airspace.
Raymond Jaworowski, a senior aerospace analyst, said Boeing hopes to show the program is on the right track.
"The fact that they are able to bring it to Farnborough, it just is kind of a signal to the industry that 'we have things worked out.' It will help," he said.
Boeing and Airbus are facing competition from China's Comac, Canada's Bombardier and Brazil's Embraer.
