BOEING
B767
For people live in Asia, the B767 will be some strangers here as most of the B767 are serving the US domestic routes. It is the first Boeing Wide body Mid-long haul jets and the first glass cockpit for Boeing. It has been in service since 1981.

- A330 look alike but A330 have winglets
B777
The Boeing 777 is my personal favourite aircraft. It is big, has a wide cabin and powerful engines. It is very easy to identify by its unique 2 x 6 Wheels bogeys for the main landing gear. There are no winglets for the B777 as the wing tip is tapered which doesn't create much drag. The -200LR is really long range, I once flown on it from Dubai to Orlando with Flight Time 16 hours 45 minutes.
How to identify? Look at its giant big high bypass ratio turbo-fan engine inlet.

B787
The Boeing 787 dreamliner will be getting more and more popular. I could mistaken as the Airbus A350 XWB as they are the direct competitor.
How you can identify one is by look at the cockpit windows - Another cool looking cockpit windows design which looks like a pair of sunglasses. Otherwise look at the engine cowling you can see the saw tooth design.
