You can actually send a control input from the control column through a wire as an electrical input through a computer that analyzes it, enhances it, makes any kind of correction to the control surfaces itself.
A Good example is banking the airplane normally you don't bank the aircraft over 30 Degrees bank, the computer will like you go to 35 degrees and if you try to exceed 35 it will actually give you an opposite input you can feel the control wheel trying to tell you it Is too much.
Although the mechanics of the airplane are obviously crucial to its safety and success, creature comforts were also very much a concern of the 777 design team.
I think it is very important that we practice aggressive listening; that means you are not Just listening to what the customer is says, But what that means ways of making the passenger more comfortable, one customer Wanted us to put a hole in the floor for a bag into, we weren't able to do that, but we were able to solve the more fundamental need, which was to give the passenger more room for carry on bags, with a bigger bin.
This whole interior is in response to what the customer has asked us for the dimension of the airplane, five inches greater than the DC-1 0 really is in response to customer's input they said hey we'd like to have in business class, 76 class, like the 7 40 ' 760, and we could do that then we can have you at the same seating comfort at seven across, as the airbus at six abreast.
Some customers said they'd like more room in tourist class, we are the most comfortable, nine abreast, ever in the industry.
Or an acceptable comfort ten abreast in some segments.
One of the features most talked about is the luggage bins, which are designed to open downward -a break from the traditional design on other airliners.
Boeing's pride in the interior of the 777 has made the plane a popular choice for passengers.
