BOEING-NEW-787: FIRST SOUNDLESS, PETROLLESS, NON POLLUTING PASSENGER PLANE

THE FIRST SOUNDLESS, PETROL LES AND NON POLLUTING  PASSENGER PLANE – BOEING NEW – 787

The maximum costly input of passenger planes is fuel today. Even if one penny per

gallon hike of rate happens, the budget of every airline of US will increase by 100 million

dollars. There will be also a two percent increase in green house effect. As the number

of planes and air traffic is increasing, it will definitely increase the green house gases

also leading to global warming. So due to all these reasons, the plane manufacturing

companies are trying to develop engines which will consume lesser amount of fuel and

thus lesser release of green house gases..Also concentration is being given to develop

lighter weight engines and planes. Attemts to develop fuel from ethanol instead of

petroleum are being made. This fuel will be manufactured from plants and trees. It is

hoped that such engines will be available for commercial planes by 2013. The noise will

also be too less. So the4se will be free from environmental and sound pollution. Present

jet technology will be replaced by electric motors. First such plane will be Boeing New-

787.This will be more comfortable for passengers also.
