What kind of aircraft is this?

The Boeing 777 is a large twin-engine, twin-aisle (wide-body) long-haul jet, in service since 1995.

In plain terms, it's a jet (turbofan) multi-engine airplane. Certification: Not type certificated (e.g. amateur-built / experimental).

There are 4 aircraft of this exact model variant on the US register, and about 334 Boeing aircraft with closely related model designations, out of 317,717 registered aircraft in total.

An aircraft's age on its own says little about how safe it is: airliners are maintained on strict, regulator-approved schedules, and inspections become more detailed as aircraft get older. More about the Boeing 777 →
