A University of Dayton professor, an expert in flight control systems, said the Boeing 787 Dreamliner will be worth the wait despite production delays.
“For a customer who flies a lot, the Dreamliner will be fantastic,” said Raul Ordonez, a University of Dayton associate professor, in a statement. “It will be a treat to fly in it.”
Ordonez spent eight weeks in the Boeing Welliver fellowship program. He was one of about 10 Boeing selects a y ear for the program.
The way pilots interact with the Dreamliner will be much improved.
“Passengers don’t think about the control systems of the plane,” he said. “But improvements in those areas are important to help the pilot have an easier time flying the plane; therefore, it will be safer.”
