Boeing Dry Bays in case of uncontained engine failure
I can't find anything in our Flight Crew manuals about the kind of dry bays Airbus have on their A320 / A380 in the Boeing docs or online. I know when the Quantas A380 uncontained failure happened parts of the engine went through the dry bay as predicted by the designers (probably saved the aircraft).
Does the 787 (or any boeing have this boxed off area aft of the front spar near the engine pylon?
Thanks

That is great thanks. Dont suppose anyone has a similar picture of the 787, this is my type but non of our manuals show anything other than a basic spar/rib rectangle. Thanks.

From my B787 B1 course notes, so not a good copy, but the dry bay is between ribs 9 & 10. Bear in mind all 787 wings are the same whether -8,-9,-10.
