Boeing's future takes flight












Thanks to a very cool live webcam on the Boeing website, we were able to share in the excitement of the first flight of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It took off from Paine Field in Everett, flew for several hours, then landed to much fanfare at Boeing Field in Seattle.











I made a few screenshots as I watched the webcam; it was especially cool to see the chase planes take off at the same time, right next to the huge passenger jet. You can just make them out here, as the three planes head west toward the Olympic Mountains.

Congratulations to everyone who made this jetliner possible... you should be very proud!
