British Airways first B787-8 is on its way and is currently approaching Greenland @ 07:23.Airline: British Airways Flight: BAW787 From: Everett, Paine Field (PAE) To: London, Heathrow (LHR) Aircraft: Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner (B788) ETA: 11:52 Local Reg: G-ZBJB Fantastic photo of her departing Paine: boeing.mediaroom.com/file.php/88118/K65936.jpgLive: fr24.com/BAW787This Aircraft is being delivered out of sequence due to G-ZBJA being delayed. Photo of G-ZBJA having final checks yesterday, she is due to depart 08:00 local (16:00 GMT.), this seems a bit odd as it would arrive just after midnight tonight. www.flickr.com/photos/microvolt/9148080881/This interesting article about BA's plans: boeing.mediaroom.com/index.php?s=43&item=2728Here's a photo of the steps that will be used for the BA A380's at Manston. Thanks to DougArrows for this photo.

Bob, My friend is a captain and instructor for BA and he is currently training on the 787 simulator at present awaiting the delivery of the new aircraft as a born & bred scouser I've asked him if up north for a go around at Liverpool got to ask he did bring a Tornado into Liverpool during his RAF days so maybe will keep you posted. They are using Manchester I believe for the training flights. Regards Les McS
