The '''Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner''' project was started by Omega95 and Redneck aimed at improving the [[Boeing 787|old Boeing 787]]'s systems and [[cockpit]] but eventually, the project took a whole new form such that only the main aircraft model and liveries from the old Boeing 787 has been used. | The '''Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner''' project was started by Omega95 and Redneck aimed at improving the [[Boeing 787|old Boeing 787]]'s systems and [[cockpit]] but eventually, the project took a whole new form such that only the main aircraft model and liveries from the old Boeing 787 has been used. | ||
A new [[JSBSim]] [[Flight Dynamics Model]] was created using a lot of data from [http://www.lissys.demon.co.uk/samp1/desmis.html the Piano tool] | A new [[JSBSim]] [[Flight Dynamics Model]] was created using a lot of data from [http://www.lissys.demon.co.uk/samp1/desmis.html the Piano tool]. The project is being hosted in [[Git]] and is still in development. Over time, the new 787-8 started taking shape with a realistic glass cockpit with real Boeing 787-8 instruments replacing the old 787's hacked [[Boeing 777-200ER|777]] Instruments. A lot of new and highly advanced systems like Hydraulics, Pneumatics, Heating, Fuel System, Fly-By-Wire etc. have been written. | ||
The first trace of the project on the forum was from the development of the Boeing 787-8's CDU and since then, it has turned into a community project. A lot of developers and forum users have contributed to make this successful. Another key feature is that whenever findings or innovations have been made, they have gone on to the forum and soon, a lot of wiki HowTo tutorials have been created so that these may help other developers too. | The first trace of the project on the forum was from the development of the Boeing 787-8's CDU and since then, it has turned into a community project.
