Abstract

This study is based on the discussion of how the Boeing 787 can set new industry standards by using composites. In order to carry out the research, secondary analysis has been adopted. For secondary analysis, credible and authentic resources have been used. The sources selected for review and analysis are relevant to the topic. It was found through the secondary analysis the use of composites in the Boeing 787 has proved to be beneficial for the company. It has not only resulted in cost savings but also increased comfort and convenience. The advanced methods and procedures introduced and adopted by the 787 Dreamliner can set new industry standards for production of aircraft.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

Outline of the Study

The thesis is based on the topic how the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner jet plane, due to its composite technology will set a new standard in the aircraft industry's production line. The first chapter will provide an introduction to the topic along with the significance and purpose of the study. The second chapter will review the existing literature relevant to the topic. In the third chapter, the methodology for this study will be discussed. The findings and analysis will be discussed in chapter four. The fifth chapter will conclude the study along with recommendations and future aspects.

Background of the Study

Boeing 787 has become one of the most talked jet liner of this century. In the production of 787, advanced technology and techniques have been used. The advances of plastics have been molded into advanced airframes that are not only environmental friendly but also comfortable for passengers. The 787 Dreamliner is considered a revolutionary aircraft in the airline industry because it has utilized unconventional supply chain (Tang, 1999). The use of unique supply chain has significantly reduced the cost and time required for aircraft ...
