CHICAGO (AP) -- Aircraft maker Boeing Co. has added a fourth 787 to its test fleet as it prepares to start delivering the plane to buyers by the end of this year, following significant delays in the program.
The latest plane is the only 787 in the flight test fleet that will include elements of the passenger interior features including cabin and crew support systems, the company said Sunday.
The 787 is introducing new passenger amenities. Among the new features are improved lighting, bigger stowage bins, larger windows with electrochromatic shades and redesigned lavatories with easier access.
