Boeing (Chicago) has rolled out the first Boeing 787 Dreamliner built at the rate of 10 airplanes per month. The airplane, a 787-8 and the 155th Dreamliner built, will be delivered to International Lease Finance Corp. for operation by AeroMexico (Mexico City).
The new 10 per month rate is the highest ever for a twin-aisle airplane. The 787 program has now increased its production rate three times in just over a year, including to five airplanes per month in November 2012 and seven per month in May 2013.
Boeing assembles and delivers 787s in two locations: Everett, Washington, and North Charleston, South Carolina.
To date, 115 787s have been delivered to 16 customers. The program has 1,030 total orders from 60 customers worldwide.
This airplane will be the fourth 787 operated by AeroMexico and will be used on the airline’s Mexico City – London Heathrow route.
