A highly detailed snap-fit model of a modern passenger airliner. I designed this model using online available blueprints to provide a quality print of one of the newest aircraft to date, the Boeing 787-8.
The wings in this model are bent upwards replicating flight conditions that the real aircraft encounters.
Please consider checking out the full version of the model with flap and slats details at the wing. A custom stand for the airplane and windows details.

Infill:
0%
Notes:
This model is optimized for 0.1 mm layer height as well as a conventional 0.4 mm nozzle.
The engine is the the only part that absolutely needs support.
The wing can benefit from support material but can very well be printed without any.
For all of the parts of the airplane I recommend 0% infill and 2 shells.
Note: You have to mirror the Flexed wing, the horizontal Stabilizer and the Engine.
Feel free to paint this airplane with the Livery of your choice
Introduction
The 787 is a wide body commercial airliner produced by Boeing that first saw service in 2011.
Since then 3 variants have been introduced, the 787-8 (the one that you see here), 787-9 and the newest 787-10.
Assembly
When you have all the parts printed, start by assembling the tail section (aft fuselage section with the stabilizers). Put one of the flexed wings into the tail section and then assemble the nose fuselage with the connector and the other wing.
