Buy a ticket. The only difference between crew and pax is what is on the glass in front of you. :D

We get ours in April of next year. I'm going to let some other guys be the "guinea pigs" since as we all know, "you never want to fly the A model of anything." And as soon we have some good operating history with the plane I'll probably bid over to it as I have heard nothing but fantastic things about it from those who have flown the sim and are knowledgeable about the airplane.

We were in Seattle last weekend and took the Boeing tour. The ANA plane was sitting on the ramp awaiting delivery. Quite a facility!

Old thread, but I thought I'd resurrect it to share some pictures I took today. The company I work for is a supplier for Boeing, and our employees were invited today to tour the Dreamliner in Rockford, Illinois.

It's certainly a big technological step forward. Can't wait to fly in one someday!

Now, let's hope I figure out how to add the attachments...

I really like the plane, and the idea of composites. But that paint scheme combined with the shape of the cockpit area reminds me of one thing......

It's a small world after all.... Monorail with wings!

I managed to sneak onto a few of the flight test planes and I thought that they were pretty exciting. I would have been immediately tossed out the gate if I had a camera with me so sorry no pictures. It is nice that the rest of the world is now beginning to see the 787 fly by.
