DALLAS – Today in Aviation, the Boeing 777 performed its first flight in 1994 under the command of chief test pilot John E. Cashman. This was the start of an 11-month flight test program, which was longer than any prior Boeing model’s testing.
The Boeing 777, often known as the Triple Seven, is a wide-body airliner developed and produced by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in the United States. It is the largest twinjet in the world. The 777 was created to fill the gap between Boeing’s 767 and 747 aircraft, as well as to replace outdated DC-10 and L-1011 aircraft.
