The Boeing 787 transport (commomly known as "Dreamliner") is an aircraft, joinly developed under the international cooperation of Japan and th U.S. The work share of Japan is the highest yet at 35% of the structure, with manufacturing the composite wing box. It is expected that there will be a 20% reduction of weight, compared to other similarly sized airplanes. 787 wing box is about five times as long as F-2 fighter wing box, twice as long as 777 vertical tail and there area is about ten times as large as F-2 fighter wing box, about three times as large as 777 vertical tail. 787 will be biggest of all airplane with composite wing box.
