JAKARTA (JP): The first Boeing B-777-200 jet of the Hong Kong-
based air carrier Cathay Pacific arrived at Soekarno-Hatta
airport yesterday, as a part of a 90-cycle program around Asia
and Australia.

The program, jointly conducted by Boeing and Cathay, will
certify the Rolls-Royce powered B-777 for extended twin engine
operations.

Cathay ordered 11 B-777s in 1992 powered by Rolls-Royce Trent
800 engines in a deal worth US$2.6 billion. The B-777 is the
largest twin-engined airliner in the world. (icn)
