The original Boeing 777 flew for the first time about FOUR years after its launch, and started flying paying passengers ONE year after that. Its replacement was planned to enter service SEVEN years after launch, despite not being a clean sheet design. And as it turns out, it will actually take at least TWELVE years from launch to fly passengers! Why??

Today we are going to take a look at how a mix of optimism, complacency and some bad luck meant that Boeing ended up getting things desperately wrong in the development of its flagship, the 777X.

Stay tuned!
