These are some never before seen photos from the inside of Boeing's Wide-Body Commercial Airplane Plant in Everett, Washington. The photos show three different 787 Dreamliner aircraft in various states of production. She is one beautiful plastic baby, isn't she?
I have always been a fan of Royal S. King's photography. He always seems to have the scoop in Everett. These shots must have been taken on the media day Boeing recently held because I thought the company prohibited production line photos long ago.
Nice closeup of the pointy nose on this gal. Seems like she's already moving at 400 mph.
Interior shot of her guts.
This cockpit shot turned out a lot better than the one we posted yesterday.
This shot shows a 787 in the static test rig where it will spend its time during the certification phase.
Update: Boeing is now predicting a June power-on for Dreamliner #1.
