Boeing to Unveil Sustainable Aviation Advances and Showcase Leading Aerospace Portfolio at Dubai Airshow 2023

Boeing is set to captivate the global aerospace community at the Dubai Airshow 2023 with its trailblazing innovations in sustainable aviation and a comprehensive display of its commercial, defense, and services portfolio. The airshow will serve as a stage for Boeing to demonstrate its commitment to a more sustainable future and its leadership in the aerospace industry.

The highlight of the event will be the Boeing 777-9, the world's largest and most efficient twin-engine jet, which will perform in the airshow's flying display. This widebody aircraft, which can seat 426 passengers and boasts a range of 13,510 km (7,295 nautical miles), represents the pinnacle of Boeing's twin-aisle family, incorporating advanced technologies from the 787 Dreamliner.

In addition to the 777-9, Boeing will showcase customer airplanes including the 787-9 Dreamliners from Etihad Airways and Qatar Airways, an Emirates Airlines 777-300ER (Extended Range), a SAUDIA 787-10 Dreamliner, and an Air India Express 737 MAX. Riyadh Air, Saudi Arabia's newest carrier, will also display a Boeing-owned 787-9 in its new indigo livery.

The airshow will also feature the F-15QA (Qatar Advanced) fighter jet, marking the first time this digitally advanced aircraft has performed at an air show. Alongside the F-15QA, Boeing will exhibit the T-7A Red Hawk Advanced Pilot Training System simulator, offering visitors a glimpse into the future of pilot training.

Boeing's commitment to sustainability will be a central theme, with executives joining panels at the Aerospace 2050 forum to discuss industry efforts to decarbonize aviation. The company will also present its Cascade Climate Impact Model, a tool providing insights towards aviation decarbonization.

In the realm of defense, global customers will display various Boeing aircraft, including the F-15E, KC-46A Pegasus, P-8A Poseidon, AH-64 Apache, and CH-47F Chinook. Boeing Global Services will highlight its offerings for government and commercial customers, focusing on digital, sustainment, modifications, parts, and training solutions.

As a strategic sponsor of the airshow's Aerospace 2050 conference, Boeing will underscore its actions towards achieving the aviation industry's goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. Dr. Brendan Nelson AO, president of Boeing Global, emphasizes the company's investments in technology to reduce industry emissions ahead of the U.N. Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP 28) in Dubai.

Boeing's presence at the Dubai Airshow 2023 reaffirms its long-standing relationship with the Middle East, dating back to 1945, and its commitment to advancing economic opportunity, sustainability, and community impact in the region.
