Meet the 'Plane of the Future': The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner has now been revealed, in test flights, ahead of the major Paris Air Show.
The video shows the plane managing to take off vertically as soon as its wheels leave the ground, an act that resembles a spaceship more than an airplane.
The plane, which costs $250 million, has several advantages over its predecessors: it can accommodate 280 passengers, and its fuel consumption is reduced by 20 percent compared to Boeing's previous model.
In addition, the new Dreamliner is capable of flying a distance of approximately 13,000 kilometers.
The aircraft is six meters longer than its predecessor, and its overall length is 63 meters.
Its interior equipment also promises extra pampering for passengers: state-of-the-art LED lighting, electronic systems, computer games, and music.
So far, Boeing reports about 500 orders for the new model.
