The Airbus A350-900 Vs. The Boeing 787-10: How Do They Compare?

Ойын-сауық

NOTE: The video was produced just before the latest Boeing news regarding another 787 delivery halt. More Information on this latest news can be found here: • Boeing Again Halts 787...
While the Boeing 787 Dreamliner was launched before Airbus' A350 program, the A350-900 would enter service before the 787-10. While the dimensions of these two widebodies is quite similar, their performance specifications ultimately result in slightly different mission profiles. In today’s video, let's compare the two aircraft from rival manufacturers.

    One very important cabin comparison item that you did not mention: Cabin pressure and humidity level. The A350 keeps it at 5500-6000 ft and 20% humidity, meanwhile the 787 keep the pressure to 6000 ft and humidity to 10-15%. So, the A350 has a slight advantage aa a passenger as a higher humidity level is more comfortable.

    Depends entirely on the airline. Are you in the 787 with 8 wide or 9 wide? 787 seats are wider than their actual competitor the a330. Are you on the a350 with 9 wide or 10 wide when comparing "comfort"? With Airbus widening a350 cabin, airlines will tend towards 10 wide instead of currently most a350's going with 9 wide and since a350's actual competition is the 777 with a wider fuselage... can 777X go 11 wide for squishy hell? Doubt it. For me, comfort of the seat is the headrest above all else and this is entirely human body specific, though any of the headrests with folding wings on the headrest get the nod for me. All those who do not... do not make the cut.

    EVA actually deploys the 787-10 on pretty long routes from Taipei to NA west coast ( Vancouver / Seattle) and Europe (Paris/ Vienna, depending on the season), alongside short flights within Asia ~ with a capacity of 342 and flight times up to 13 hours, it shows the versatility of the aircraft. The range gets negative rep mostly because of how it compares to its own siblings -8, -9, and the similarly sized a350-900, but it's still very capable, especially with its lower operating costs.

    Airlines simply can't ignore the economics of the aircraft, and Airbus knows it. That's why they're releasing a version with the dimmable windows, which would likely save some weight, but it still won't match the economics of the 787-10. However, the A350 will thrive on longhaul routes because of its wider economy class seats and roomier business class.

Some airlines have had to reduce seating capacity on the 787-10 to allow it to fly slightly further and reach desired destinations. Qantas 787-9s seat around 236 passengers ( QR's 787-9s seat 300+ for comparison) , which allows them to fly slightly further. So a hypothetical 787-9ER/LR could be able to allow qantas to increase its seat count from 236 to maybe around 280 seats while still being able to cover the same range. A similar effect should be possible on the "787-10ER".

    Both are wonderful airplanes. But due to quality control headaches with the 787 Dreamliner, I choose the A350. Remember that Boeing used an ODM (original design manufacturer) model for their 787 Dreamliner to cut down on research and development costs. That means Boeing contracted other companies to do the engineering for them and those contracted companies sub-contracted other companies to make the parts for the 787 Dreamliner. This ODM model works for smartphone manufacturing as consumer electronics have looser tolerances. But airplanes have very tight tolerances thus the precision engineering must be perfect. If Boeing stuck to their traditional OEM (original equipment manufacturer) model then they will control the engineering of the 787 Dreamliner and contract other companies to make 787 parts to spec for the tight tolerances the 787 needs. I hope Boeing doesn’t reuse the ODM model for their 777x wide body…oh wait.

    The A350-900 is the original version of the A350 family while the 787-10 is what you get when you try to eak out every last bit of length and capacity while staying true to the original design (like the 737 Max 10). If you already operate the 787s, than the 787-10 is probably the best (especially for high demand medium haul) and you just use the 787-9 for range. If don't have the 787 and you want an aircraft seating around 300 passengers and you need the range, the A350 is the best option. However, if you care about the comfort of economy passenger on long-haul flights, then you'll order the A350... (shots fired)

    It's the airlines that determine how comfortable an aircraft is on longhaul, not the aircraft. Sure, the A350 has half inch wider seats, but if the airline crams more seats in, leaving little legroom, you'll feel it. Qantas operates the 787-9 between LAX and SYD, and, aside from their shortcoming of not offering WiFi on such a long flight, it's a very comfortable experience. I doubt you'd say the same thing if you had to fly longhaul on a French Bee A350.

    No, 787-10 was planned from the start. Base model was the -9 version with guarantees to contractors for at least one size larger/smaller than base model. Was there, worked the design from the start. Boeing did plan on having a lower OEW though. Due to FAA regulatory officials NOT giving Boeing load alleviation due to FBW in a 2G+ wind up turn that added 5-->10tons of fuselage weight they were hoping to drop. There was also extra weight added in wing box area. It should be noted EASA did give AIRBUS load alleviation in a350 a couple years later for 2G+ wind up turns. This probably saves the a350-1000 at least 10 tons and maybe as high as 20 tons when you compare to the much older 777, but does save probably ~10 tons on their base -900 model. Carbon fiber is nice, but it has a problem, its deflection is much greater under load compared to aluminum and why the 2G turn creates large increases in fuselage weight. Boeing could recertify their 787 for load alleviaition on FBW... but this would cost billions. This would help the 787-10 immensely. It will not happen, and if it does, I will be shocked. Who knows, maybe they will for their upcoming ER version. I doubt it.

Airbus stretched the 900 because the 777-300ER was still getting orders in significant numbers due to its cargo capacity.

    @@sainnt Sigh... In the YEAR 2000, LONG before the a350 was even a twinklin' in the eye of Airbus, and even before officially the 7E7 was announced after the sonicruiser was officially terminated after 9-11 in 2001, the 7E7 had its base model already designated 789 with one model smaller 788 and one model LARGER, the 781. GE's GEN-X engine tech had already been demonstrated for said weight class. In fact the 77W had not even been produced yet... When we designed the 787 the base model was the 789 even though the first produced was the 787-800. This was planned from the start. The only 787 model which did NOT get built was the one JAL wanted, 783 with ~3500nm range but same payload = NEW wing/landing gear/wing box. Suggest some basic history first before typing my friend. HGW 787-10 will be easy as it will essentially just be adding another fuel tank for Air New Zealand and a few others such as United who have a few routes who would really appreciate a 787-10 instead of a 777 or a350 and maybe adding slightly wider tires. Landing specs will most likely remain the same, but Take off will be higher. Shouldn't even have to reinforce the wings. The wing/fuselage joint, I do not know, was not my bailiwak

The a350 just seems clunky, and quickly put together, whereas the 787 feels like there has been some thought put towards it. Sounds: - The a350 has very loud brakes, almost loud enough to turn off a worried flyer. - Engine noise, 787 just has a peaceful hum, where as the a350 I'd say is louder. Lighting: - 787 interior lighting appears to have many options for the carrier and is much more subtle then that of the a350. Also a quick mention of the useless OLED/ LCD screens they use as the seatbelt sign. Like, why?

My last flight was on BA on 787-9 in first class LHR-ATL which was okay. at 9+ hours. An upcoming BCN-EWR flight will be on a UA 787-10 at close to 9 hours. So, what makes sense to me is that it is a good aircraft to fly to and from Europe, which is where UA and KLM feature it. The amount of ultra long haul routes are fairly few, so the 787-10 makes good sense as a lower cost alternative to the a350-900 on all but those few routes.

    Singapore Airlines is a great example of an airline that sees the advantages of both aircraft. They use the A350-900 on their longest longhaul routes, including the ULR version, but use the 787-10 on their densest routes, mostly within Asia. Ultimately both are wonderful aircraft with slightly differing missions, but with the 787 being able to carry more cargo, a HGW version will all but eliminate the advantage of the A350, which would lead Airbus to modify the A350-1000 even before that variant has to deal with the 777-9. It's going to be interesting to see what happens when the 777-9 goes into service.

Conversely, Boeing isn't as automated, allowing pilots to gain real, hands-on flying experience.

    The A350 offers more fuel and more range. That alone makes it better when you consider you can fly NONSTOP from JFK to Manila or JFK to Singapore. It's a time saver. Business class is also superior on the A350. Economy on the A350 has more space than the 787. The A350 has more powerful engines and can take off from short runways. After flying business class on both, I absolutely prefer the A350 -1000 to the 787 -10. BUT I prefer the A380-800 over ALL. Specifically the Emirates A380.

In the USA and Europe I think it will be more of a 50/50 split because both believe in cutting fuel costs (and fuel dependency on foreign countries) and lower emissions to meet environmental goals. But ultimately it will come down to national origin of these plans more than anything else for this region. In emerging economies, they can care less about Boeing vs Airbus.

The automatic windows in the 787 are amazing, much better then the old-fashioned once. Especially with passengers to dumb to listen to cabin crew requests when landing for example. Flew the 787-10 from AMS-LAX (about 11 hours). So certainly a really long haul flight.

    I think the primary issue at hand between these two is separate from their capabilities. The 787 production facility is currently producing less than two aircraft per month because the FAA doesn't trust them with their delegated authority. Apparently the same issues with the 737 Max are permeated throughout the company. The a350 is objectively a better aircraft: it can carry more passengers with a higher range and better cabin pressure. The only reason it seems anyone is buying the 787 is because Boeing is selling them at or near production price. They can do this because of billions in tax cuts and subsidies from the state of South Carolina, where the facility is located. They're treating it as a real estate and market share operation, which should give everyone pause.

Having the ability to swich in and out -8, -9 and -10 aircraft for daily routes depending on demands also is quite logical.

    I was on an A350 yesterday and it was terrifying for some reason so I’d say the 787

    2:17 how come the 787-9 and 10 have the same MTOW yet the 787-10 is heavier and has more engine thrust?

    MTOW is determined by the structural integrity or strength of the airframe ( primarily the landing gear and wing box) , not by the Empty weight of the aircraft. The stronger ( not the heavier ) the airframe structure is, the more weight it can carry for take off ( aka higher MTOW). Aircraft of the same family with the same MTOW just means the overall structural strength of the airframe ( e.g landing gear, wing box) is the same or very similar. The 777-300ER and 777-200LR have the same MTOW, so is the a330-900 and a330-800. The a330-200 and a330-300 share the same MTOW as far as I know. The 737-800 and the non ER 737-900 also shared the same MTOW To save costs usually aircraft of the same family share components like the landing gear, wing box , the wings, fuel tanks and many more. Sharing the same/similar components like the landing gear usually means the structural strength of the airframe is the same even for heavier varients of the same aircraft family. Being heavier only means carrying less fuel for for more payload, it has little or effect on the MTOW.

    Airbus will sell a lot of A350's in the 2020's for one reason: airlines that bought large fleets of 777's need to replace their planes over this decade. As such, I expect Air France to start replacing their 777-300ER's with A350-1000's starting around 2026. This is why Rolls-Royce is working on the _UltraFan_ program: a new engine that will be available on the A350 before 2030.

    Air New Zealand has ordered the B787-10 'extended range' or higher MTOW replacing the current B777-300er fleet. Deliveries for the B787-10 'extended range' start late 2024.

    Both are great, but the A350 slightly better for passengers (IMO). The old 777s are v poor. However, my favorite plane is still the A380 for ultimate comfort.

    Saudi Arabia has recently requested a large order of Dreamliner 787 aircraft. Was the Saudi government's choice successful instead of the Airbus 350?

    Overall A350 is better but in case of comfort and design, 787 look a bit better.

    The metrics that really stand out are range (for Airbus) and cargo capacity (for Boeing).

    RANGE is the most important. Airlines like Singapore Airlines can run nonstop from JFK to Changi or JFK to Manila.

    is it just me or are the proportions kind of deceiving... the specs are obviously there but just looking at the two planes it seems like the 787-10 is a higher capacity plane... the 787 has more windows on each side despite them being bigger than on the a350 and the distances between the doors seem more proportionate to something like the 787-9... are the doors on the A350 just more massive?
