Boeing’s fifth flight-test 787 Dreamliner and the first with GEnx-1B engines took off on its first flight from Everett’s Paine Field at 2:40 p.m. on June 16th.
Currently despite the 787 Dreamliner delays, the engines are not yet quite at its fuel-burn specifications. The engines are currently about 2% off specifications.
A planned improvement package next year will bring the engines very close to specs and then we have a second package coming on (in 2012) and we will bring the engines above speck.
