From: Lancashire born. In Cebu now
The 777-200LR (Longer Range) will take off with a full load of fuel and 35 passengers and crew,
The Worldliner uses less fuel to fly farther, carry more passengers
A slight contradiction in terminology.
Not really a passenger carrying flight,more a media opportunity and a glimpse into a record book.Bet it couldn't do it the other way.
