Boeing Aircraft History
And a mad shout out for FedEx in the #3 slot.
Amid all the 787 roll-out hoopla, perhaps the coolest event went unnoticed.
On Saturday night, Boeing had all of the 787 airline representatives at an
event at the Museum of Flight. At 7:07 PM, an Omega Air Refueling Services
707 landed in front of the crowd (after taking off from Paine Field in
Everett). At 7:17, an AirTran 717 landed. This continued until 8:17 when
an Air France 777-300ER landed. In the end, the 717, 727, 737, 747, 757,
767, and 777 were lined up nose-to-tail on the taxiway. It is the first
time Boeing has had every 7-series airplane in the same place.
