In a newly released video, Boeing shows its pilots prepping for the flight program with a series of stunning maneuvers as the plane turns at sharp angles through the sky and climbs and falls in precipitous swerves. The Dreamliner is a key strategy in Boeing’s competition with its main rival, the France-headquartered Airbus. Companies including American Airlines, United Airlines and Air France are incorporating the Dreamliner into their fleets. The Farnborough International Air Show runs July 14-20. Check out the video here for a healthy dose of elevator rock and flight trickery, but don’t expect any barrel rolls. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/"},"headline":"Watch Boeing's Dreamliner Do Tricks That Would Make You Sick","datePublished":"2014-07-16T19:45:43.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:11:20.794Z","description":"Buckle your seatbelt","url":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/","keywords":["Aviation","Airlines"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Sam Frizell","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/sam-frizell/"}],"articleSection":"World","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/world/","name":"World"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/aviation/","name":"Aviation"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/","name":"Watch Boeing's Dreamliner Do Tricks That Would Make You Sick"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Boeing Preps the 787-9 Dreamliner for Farnborough","description":"Boeing Preps the 787-9 Dreamliner for Farnborough","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/Ai9YGX4U/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2014-07-16T20:48:05.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/Ai9YGX4U.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/","duration":"PT3M3S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/2993613/boeing-dreamliner-video/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
