What is the difference between Boeing 747 and 787?
The 787 is both shorter, smaller and thinner than the 747. With that comes a lower passenger count than the 747, as well as a lower MTOW. Surprisingly however, the 747 is much faster than the 787. The 747 is Mach 0.005 faster than the 787, and travels further (if only briefly) than the 787.
How can you tell the difference between a 787 and a 777?
The Boeing 777 series is generally larger than the 787 and thus can carry more passengers. The 787-10 has a higher capacity than the smaller 777-200 series. However, it falls short of the larger 777-300 models by 66 passengers in a typical two-class configuration.

Is the A350 or 787 better for airlines?
The A350 tends to be a slightly larger plane. The range of the longest range A350 is also slightly longer than that of the longest range 787, but both can be used for ultra-long haul flights. One may be better than the other depending on the requirements of the customer.
Is Boeing 737 or 787 a mid wing aircraft?
The “757-replacement” New Midsize Airplane (NMA) study is for an aircraft with more capacity than the 737-900ER/737-9 but with less range than the 787. The middle-of-the-market (MoM) space for Airbus would be at least 1,000 new dual-engine, single-aisle planes designed to fly thin routes (up to 5,000 nautical miles with 200 to 260 passengers).

You hear them called several things. They are actually 781.6 CC, so I could see someone rouding up to a 782. Most people call them a 787 and some others call them an 800. they are all the same engine though.
