Rejoice, for Boeing has delivered its first 787 Dreamliner after three years of delay. It has been handed to All Nippon Airlines yesterday and it will arrive to its base in Tokyo today. It will begin flying on November 11.
The first line would be local, from Tokyo to Okayama-Hiroshima, presumably to get the crew used to it. In January, they will have the first flight with enough time to try the Dreamliner’s hidden orgy room, as the plane starts its first international route: from Tokyo to Frankfurt, Germany. [Boeing]

Wednesday, September 28, 2011 at 3:02 AMthe wing isn’t bending. it’s an illusion created by the swept wing with blended winglet. a 777 looks similar.
