The Magknight 787: Aviator’s Edition is the next evolution of our popular 787-9. The 787-9 is a long-haul, mid-size widebody twinjet, and the first airliner to be built primarily from composites. Since the first delivery of the first 787-9 in July 2014 over 390 airframes have been delivered. The 787 is flown on routes from one hour in length all the way to the marathon 19-hour flights from London to Perth and beyond. Which will you choose?
