The Revolutionary Boeing 777X Jet Is Running Behind Schedule
The late-2013 sales launch of Boeing‘s (NYSE: BA) 777X widebody jet was a game changer for the upper end of the commercial aircraft market.

Newlywed downed 4 beers before flight, went on homophobic rant and attacked flight attendants on way to his honeymoon
A man on an easyJet flight was supposed to be on his way to Egypt, where he was set to celebrate his honeymoon with his bride. Instead, he has been handed seven months in jail after he drunkenly assaulted two flight attendants and went on a homophobic rant.
The court heard that he was escorted off the plane by police officers who he abused, calling one of them a ‘baldy c***’. His wife was heard shouting: ‘Look at what you’ve done. You have f****** off our honeymoon!’
Judge David Rennie said: ‘It was like a child having a tantrum. You chose to drink four pints and to behave in a foul-mouthed, highly abusive manner. Something of your true character did reveal itself.
‘We do have to ask why airports are selling that amount of alcohol outside of usual licensing hours.
‘An attack on the perceived sexuality of these men was utterly shameful. People like you find yourself on the edge of society.
‘Only an immediate custodial sentence can be justified.’
