Summary
The longest variant of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, with the greatest capacity, is the -10.
Launched in 2013 following a commitment by Singapore Airlines to order the type, the 787-10 first flew on 8 June 2017.
By late 2017 the type had firm orders for over 170 aircraft, with airlines keen to use it as a replacement for older Boeing 777-200 and Airbus A330-300 aircraft. It was also seen as a competitor for the Airbus A350, or simply has a higher capacity variant for airlines which already had 787 fleets.
To date there have been around 100 Boeing 787-10 aircraft delivered, with more still on order.
