Comparison For Wide Body Aircrafts

[Kee Hooi Yen 0]

Just done a comparison for the different wide body aircrafts.

 

In my opinion, B744 is just perfect in wing span (WS) : length (L) ratio as well as height (H) : length (L) ratio. Unlike the whale, its high WS:L and H:L makes it looks fat and short. Just think if A380 is to get the ‘perfect’ ratio as B744, its length ought to be 87.7m, which is 20% more of its current length !

 

Will love to see if the next generation of A380 will have the measurement closes to the ratio as B744.

 

 

Length, L (m) Wing Span, WS (m) Height, H (m) WS/L H/L H/WS

B772 63.7 60.9 18.5 0.96 0.29 0.30

B773 73.9 60.9 18.5 0.82 0.25 0.30

Thta will be copycat...........

 

Nice comparison there Yen, I never thought Airbus has more new genration widebodies type than Boeing, but still, Boeing beat them real bad
