The Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner has received an amended type certificate (ATC) from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), clearing the airplane for commercial service.
The awarding of ATC caps a successful flight test program that began in March 2017 and involved three flight test airplanes that accumulated about 900 test hours.
Boeing's flight test program team took the airplanes through a series of tests to confirm the airplane's handling, quality, safety, reliability, systems and overall performance.
Having met the FAA's rigorous standards, other aviation regulatory agencies are expected to follow the FAA's lead and certify the airplane before it's delivered to its launch customer, Singapore Airlines.
Launched in 2004, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a family of super-efficient airplanes with new passenger-pleasing features.
As a stretch of the 787-9, the 787-10 retains over 95 percent commonality while adding seats and cargo capacity, setting a new benchmark for fuel efficiency and operating economics at 25 percent better fuel per seat and emissions than the airplanes it will replace.
The Boeing 787-10 is the largest member of the 787 family and can fly up to 330 passengers, in a typical two-class configuration, up to 6,430 nautical miles (11,910 km).
To date, Boeing has over 170 orders for the 787-10 from nine customers worldwide. First delivery is expected to Singapore Airlines in the first half of 2018.

Wonderful event and topics discussed, hopefully we see the manifestations in our African airline businesses in the nearest future. Kudos to you all.
