On Wednesday, I went over to Paine Field to watch three new aircraft depart from Boeing for final delivery to Saudia Airlines. Two 787 Dreamliners and a 777.
There is a viewing area right next to the runway, so you can get a really good view and hear them run up the engines.
Saudia 787 ready for takeoff
When I woke up this morning, I saw in my timeline, a tweet with the same plane which had just recently arrived to it's destination. Kind of cool.
All of this reminded me of this article from a few years ago about the 787 flying in formation with the oldest flying Boeing aircraft.
Bonus: After the Saudia aircraft launched, the DreamLifter rolled out for take off!
