Her new jet, Boeing 777X, has perishable wings. Prototype was introduced to the world a few days ago during a “live” transmission from the Boeing factory in Washington, where it was built.

The aircraft is the first of the new generation and when it begins flights it will be the world's largest two-cycle aircraft. When it is completed, it will have the largest wing stretch, compared to all aircraft released from the 102-year-old factory.

The wings give the aircraft additional thrust, which helps save 12% more fuel compared to Airbus 350. The folded wings have been seen in military planes before, but in commercial aircraft this is a innovation.

And in fact, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has to draft new regulations on this. With a capacity of 350 to 425 passengers, the plane is expected to debut in 2020, with test flights starting next year.

There are some even airline companies that have already made orders, among them Emirates, All Nippon Airays and Lufthansa.
