5 February, U.S.: Boeing rolls out its biggest plane, the 777X, powered by the world’s biggest engine, the GE9X

8 Feb 24, U.S.: Top Oscar contenders include Alfonso Cuaron’s epic Roma, giving Netflix its first ever Best Picture nomination. Black Panther becomes the first superhero movie ever to compete for the top honour
