That makes no sense. Why would they stop the broadcast at 10.30 – the scheduled take-off time

Austrian TV:
Zeit im Bild Spezial – Erstflug A-380:

Hide and seek at Toulouse !!!

A380: “…98,99,100! I’m ready!”

😀 😀 😀

Do the F/A-18E/F Block II Super Hornet’s with the APG-79 Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar system have a modified radome than the previous Super Hornet’s???

I hope, that the final 787 design will not look like a “pimped up” 767. I would remind me like the first 7E7 design.

I don’t like the final design, looks more “traditional” – like a 767NG.
I’m not disappointed by the loss of the shark fin, I’m more disappointed over the new nose.
Well, have to get used to it.

Traditional family design is more efficiency than a modern design.
Just remember BMW with their 7-er’s…. :diablo:

C-17 center stick

I know, this is off topic:
Did Boeing ever research the center stick on the C-17 military transporter, after Boeing taked over MDD??

787 final design

I just noticed one thing from the official Boineg picture (reply 10). The nose section seems to be rather narrow. Could this mean that the 787 nose will be stuck onto a future 737 succesor/version? Similar to how the 767 and the 777 share noses.

As I quoted here, Boeing will unveiled the 787 final design later this month.
That’s just this week!

Nice small animation movie, where a B787 changes from Boeing colours to AC colours:
