Larger than all other two engine or three engine commercial aircraft, but smaller than a 747, the Boeing 777 is the first ever jet passenger aircraft to be completely designed by computer. Unlike other aircraft, a mock-up was never produced. This helped lower development costs.
The wing of the Boeing 777 is said to be the world's most efficient used in a current airliner.
We are told that the Boeing 777 turbojets are the most powerful, efficient, and quietest turbojets for the amount of power that they produce.
The Boeing 777 uses about 2/3 more carbon fiber materials, for added strength and lightness, than any other Boeing jet, except for the new Boeing 787.
The twelve-wheel main landing gear of the Boeing 777 allows for less wear on runways and taxi ways by more even weight distribution.
The Boeing 777 holds the record for longest non-stop commercial flight ever accomplished.

Radio Control Airplane
RC Airplane from E-Flite.
Radio Control Airplanes:
Pictured above and immediately below is the E-Flite Super Airliner resembling the Boeing 777 RC Airplane. The radio control airplane has a 55" wing span and comes with two BL 400 outrunner brushless motors driving 6.6 mm fans.
In the second picture below is the impressive RC 307 Model resembling the Boeing 777 RC Airplane from EDF Model. Wing span of the radio control airplane is 78" and length is 73". Recommended power for the RC Airplane is by a pair of Typhoon 600-33 brushless motors driving WeMoTec Midi Fans. The RC 307 radio control airplane has an all up weight of about 9 lbs.
There are some unimpressive two channel models being sold as the Boeing 777 RC Airplane. These radio control airplanes don't even look like a Boeing 777.
Some companies are promoting toy like Boeing 777 radio control airplanes as park flyers, but they give the impression that they wouldn't last very long in a park environment.
