Image Details and Quick facts

Name:	British Airways
Type:	Boeing 777-200
Capacity:	up to 301

The 777 family is designed to fill the size gap between the 767 and 747. The market-driven 777-200 twinjet seats from 305 to 328 passengers in a typical three-class configuration. The initial 777-200, which was first delivered in May 1995, has a range of up to 5,925 miles.

The 777-200ER (extended range) was first delivered in February 1997. This model is capable of flying the same number of passengers up to 7,695 nautical miles.

The latest 777 derivative is the 777-300, a stretched version that provides seating for 328 to 394 passengers in a typical three-class configuration. The first airplane was delivered in May 1998.

The recently launched 777-200 and -300 Longer-Range Derivatives bring the popular twinjets from Boeing Commercial Airplanes Group to new markets. Continuing the tradition of the 777, these newest airplanes fulfill the original vision of the 777 family plan. The 777-200 derivative will be the longest-range airplane in the world, while the 777-300 derivative will be the ideal replacement for early 747s. Proposed first delivery will be late 2003 (first model, with the second model following four to six months later).
