The 787 Dreamliner is here
EVERETT, Wash.--How else to say it?
The 787 Dreamliner is here.
The world's first 787 Dreamliner is here. It was rolled out in Everett, Wash., on July 8, 2007, or 07/08/07
(Credit: Daniel Terdiman/CNET News.com)At just a couple minutes before 4:30 p.m. Sunday, Boeing cracked the doors open to its mammoth facility here, and up rolled the world's first 787.
Looking resplendent in the afternoon sunshine on a beautiful day, the 787 is a lovely plane.
It is both modern looking and reminiscent of the traditional Boeing style.
How well does it fly? Well, Boeing says it is energy efficient, profitable, and all kinds of other other great things. That will take some time to know for sure, since the first passengers won't get on a Dreamliner until next year.
The 787 Dreamliner has more pre-orders than any other jetliner in history

(6 Comments)with ACR 4.1 that has the "fill light" feature, there's no excuse for
the plane's underbelly being totally black.
