Скачать или смотреть A Battle of The World's Largest Twinjet!! Cathay Pacific A350-1000 VS. Cathay Pacific 777-300ER

The world's biggest twin-engine jet, A350-1000 VS. 777-300ER landing and takeoff comparison, which one do you like?

The Airbus A350 series is Cathay Pacific’s latest fleet. In this series, Cathay Pacific operates both A350-900 and A350-1000 models, which is a relatively rare operation method.
The biggest difference between A350-1000 and A350-900 is that A350-1000 has a longer fuselage and can carry more passengers. But this design will increase the overall weight of aircraft, so the landing gear of the A350-1000 is designed differently from the A350-900. The landing gear of A350-1000 has 4 more tires. (A set of A350-900's landing gear has 4 tires, and the main landing gear has 8 tires in total. A set of A350-1000's landing gear has 6 tires, and the main landing gear has 12 tires in total.)
These data show that the A350-1000 is almost the same size as the 777-300ER. But the maximum take-off weight of the Boeing 777-300ER is still greater, and the engine thrust of the 777-300ER is also greater than that of the A350-1000, so the Boeing 777-300ER is still the world’s largest twin-engine aircraft.
The A350 with Trent XWB engine is the only one aircraft to pass the ETOPS-370 in the world. The ETOPS-370 is also currently the highest level in the Extended-range Twin-engine Operations Performance Standards.
The current competitor of A350-1000 is 777-300ER, and its competitor will become 777-9 in the future.

The Boeing 777-300ER is represent medium-range large aircraft and long-range large aircraft in Cathay Pacific, although they are almost similar in appearance. Due to the age of the 777-300ER, Cathay Pacific purchased the Boeing 777X, and deliveries are expected to begin in 2025 (Boeing 777-9), so the Cathay Pacific will use 77X (777-9) to replace 77W (777-300ER) in the future.
In fact, the 777-300ER is still the largest twin-engine jet in the world, among all twin-engine jets, the 777-300ER has the largest circular fuselage section, the largest maximum take-off weight, the largest cargo space (volume) and the largest total loadable capacity. Its successor (777X) has been delayed in commercial flight, which has led to a longer time for the 777-300ER to dominate the world. The title of The world's biggest twin-engine jet will not change until the first 777X is successfully delivered to a customer and begins commercial flights.
According to reliable sources, Cathay Pacific is about to place an order for the 777-8F as a new large cargo aircraft in the future.
In addition to the 777-300ER itself, its engine (GE90-115B) is also the largest commercial engine in the world, the GE90-115B produced by the General Electric Company has the largest diameter, strongest thrust, and heaviest weight. Similarly, the title of The world's biggest commercial engine will not change until the first GE9X(with 777X) is successfully delivered to a customer and begins commercial flights.
