An Air Data Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU) is a key component of the integrated Air Data Inertial Reference System (ADIRS), which supplies air data (airspeed, angle of attack and altitude) and inertial reference (position and altitude) information to the pilots' electronic flight instrument system displays as well as other systems on the aircraft such as the engines, autopilot, aircraft ...
The planform view of a Boeing 777-300ER, with raked wingtips. Boeing introduced a number of advanced technologies with the 777 design, including fully digital fly-by-wire controls, [134] fully software-configurable avionics, Honeywell LCD glass cockpit flight displays, [135] and the first use of a fiber optic avionics network on a commercial ...
777: 14 wheels [1x2]+[2x6] A Boeing 777-200 from United Airlines. Using 6-wheel bogies, instead of the common 4-wheel bogies (reminiscent of earlier generation Tupolev Tu-154), was visionary for contemporary aircraft at the time of the design of the 777: B-52 Stratofortress: 8 main wheels plus 2 outrigger wheels [2x2]+[2x2]
The 3D interpretation is a solid truncated cone, with the small end pointing toward the viewer. The front view is, therefore, two concentric circles. The fact that the inner circle is drawn with a solid line instead of dashed identifies this view as the front view, not the rear view. The side view is an isosceles trapezoid.

The original 777-200 model first entered service in 1995, followed by the extended-range 777-200ER in 1997. [6] The stretched 777-300, which is 33.3 ft (10.1 m) longer, began service in 1998. The longer-range 777-300ER and 777-200LR variants entered service in 2004 and 2006, respectively, while a freighter version, the 777F, debuted in 2009. [6]
The Intel 80x86 processor was the first to be used for the system, in conjunction with a compiler and runtime system for the Ada programming language.Beginning in 1988 and continuing for a number of years, Honeywell Air Transport Systems worked together with consultants from DDC-I in collaboration to retarget and optimize the DDC-I Ada compiler to the AMD 29050 architecture for use in full ...
With the stiff competition to equip the first generation 777 models (777-200 and 777-200ER), GE tried to branch out and use the GE90 for other aircraft. Then-CEO Brian H. Rowe went so far as to offer to pay for the development of the GE90 for the Airbus A330 , but Airbus rebuffed the plan, instead choosing to focus on the four-engine A340 for ...
