Enjoyed the images Scott, exciting times with the B787 first flight over and B747-8 not far away also. Have a great Christmas and New Year.

Still awesome. Thanks to the above for the links.

It seems momentum is starting to really build with the program, especially now there are two frames active. I suppose we could expect that with the delays up the front and the pipeline still filling from the back.

Four more to come and 8 plus months of arduous testing.

BTW, don't those engines look huge, even 777NG'esque?

I note that the airframe is very low to the ground much like the B737 thought it would have been higher off the ground much like the B767, impressive pictures Scott

I downloaded a copy of it before it disappeared. Here's a link to it. You will need a FLV player to view it - should be a free download somewhere..

Thanks guys - Yes I cannot tell you how AMAZING those engines sound - truly different to anything on the market. Videos are great but you need to hear these things in real life to enjoy it to the max.

Scott.
