West Seattle scene: Second Dreamliner’s first flyby

Thanks to Mike Russell for that photo, which he captioned: “First flight of the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, as seen from West Seattle just before landing.” That landing was at 4:17 pm, according to our partners at The Seattle Times, five hours after the jet left Paine Field in Everett – their story’s here.

    Very cool! I remember seeing this and wondering why it looked so different from other planes. Now I know!

    Very cool! Thanks for publishing the photograph. A friend and I were just stepping outside in SODO when I think we caught the tail of this Dreamliner overhead, obviously banking for Boeing Field. There was a smaller, corporate looking jet flying alongside it, too.

Sorry, comment time is over.
