- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- The Boeing 777-200ER, registered as N771KW and operated by Eastern Air Lines, represents a significant chapter in the airline's revival and its commitment to providing passengers with a luxurious and efficient travel experience.

The 777-200ER, celebrated for its spacious and modern cabin, has played a pivotal role in reconnecting travelers with a legacy of premium service and innovation.
- Brought into service in 1994 by Boeing to replace earlier, aging DC-10 and L-1011 airliners, the twin engine Boeing 777 fills the void in size between Boeing 767 and 747 and is Boeing's first aircraft to be outfitted with advanced fly-by-wire controls. Offered in many versions that can be configured to seat up to 472 passengers with a flight range of nearly 8,600 nautical miles, the Boeing 777, which initially competed against the now discontinued Airbus A340 and McDonnell Douglas MD-11, has overtaken the Boeing 747 with the number of aircraft produced and currently goes up against Airbus' A350 and A330-900 aircraft. The Boeing 777-200ER - Extended Range - which can fly approximately 7,100 nautical miles, was proposed to meet the requirements of airlines flying transoceanic routes and initiated service competing against the Airbus A340-300 in 1997 with additional fuel capacity and a maximum takeoff weight to accomplish this task.
- N771KW's history with Eastern Air Lines is marked by its role in redefining the passenger experience and reestablishing the airline's reputation for excellence. The 777-200ER offers travelers a luxurious and comfortable cabin, equipped with top-tier amenities, entertainment systems, and impeccable service, ensuring a remarkable and memorable journey. Eastern Air Lines' commitment to delivering a premium travel experience has been magnificently embodied by this aircraft.
