Frank found it somewhere, I thought someone might find interesting. It's a pdf'd slideshow.

The slide comparing the windows of a 777 vs. a 787 is impressive from the point of view of self loading cargo.

And the wing flexing slides - wow.

Yah, even the flex on the 1G loading was huge. I guess you can look out and if the tips go past the height of the vstab you know its all over.

Looking forward to flying it, but I'll let someone else work out the kinks first..

The "synthetic airspeed" caught my eye, especially in the context of AF447.
