The Special Report, available at www.DesignNews.com/boeing, has a variety of exclusive stories, videos and podcasts, and offers readers an unprecedented inside look at Boeing's newest and highly anticipated aircraft. The package will also take up 18 pages in the June 4 print edition of Design News.

The mid-sized, wide-body Boeing 787 Dreamliners have racked up more than 500 orders, making it the most successful new large plane in history. It has been touted as the first major airliner to use composite material composite material or composite, any material made from at least two discrete substances, such as concrete. Many materials are produced as composites, such as the fiberglass-reinforced plastics used for automobile bodies and boat hulls, but the  for half of its construction, and promises to be lighter, more comfortable, and more fuel-efficient than other airliners. www.DesignNews.com/boeing gets to the core of nearly every major engineering aspect of the plane. The stories include:

"The 787 project at Design News was three months in the making -- we could not have done this without deep access to Boeing's engineers and others with the 787's key partners," said John Dodge, editor-in-chief of Design News. "We are extremely proud of this coverage, and believe you won't find such a detailed and analysis-packed package of engineering stories anywhere else about the 787, on the eve On the Eve (Накануне in Russian) is the third novel by famous Russian writer Ivan Turgenev, best known for his short stories and the novel Fathers and Sons.  of the plane's roll-out and first flight."
