I heard that it is going to be just a static display there, no flybys or nothing.

Ok... I am not a economic expert, but ? since Boeing is getting all of these orders this year, wouldn't that help our trade deficit ? and would that be a good indicator that our economy is doing well ?

The diameter of those 777 engines is the same diameter as the fuselage of the 737, and the read horizontal stabilizers is also the same wing length as the 737.
The 777 is only slightly smaller than the 747 with out the iconic " 747 Hump ".

The 787 is really a beautiful aircraft.

The interior is equally impressive.
