Will Boeing Get an Edge over Rivals with Foldable Wings?

Will Boeing Get an Edge over Rivals with Foldable Wings?

On May 18, the US FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) gave the green light to Boeing’s (BA) revamping of its 777 jetliners. Boeing has started building the first of its 777X jetliners with these new wings in a manufacturing facility near Seattle. The aircraft will be Boeing’s revolutionary first twin-engine models with a foldable wing design capable of carrying 400 plus passengers.
