Description
...took this picture over the fence at Paine Field, Everett, Washington yesterday...3 miles from home.
...the sky caught my eye as much as the unfinished Dreamliner.
.................................................
...Boeing's main plant is here for manufacturing/assembling their newest airplane, the Boeing 787...also known as the Dreamliner.
...the first eight 787s have been delivered to Japan. ANA on this unfinished plane above stands for All Nippon Airlines.
...this one is awaiting horizontal stabilizers, rudder, ailerons, flaps, doors and engines. Why? All these assemblies are made in different countries and are flown in as needed.
...there's a lot of work to be done to fill the orders for 843 more. International business is booming.

P.S. Very zoomable.

And Boeing are flying high! This is a fab capture Bill, its a wonder they let you get so close.
excellent my friend
Wow Bill that is a mind blowing amount of planes. Beautiful sky BTW.
Talk about big business! I spent some time in a northern air control center watching screens of aircraft in the sky all over the world. They said it was a slow day but at that time there were 6,500 passenger aircraft just over North America...mind boggling just thinking about the fuel consumption, let alone everything else involved in the whole business. They actually asked me if I would consider working on air traffic control...said I would be good at it, as they were looking for steady guys like me. I said "What?" like I couldn't hear very well, and drew a great laugh, but I wasn't kidding, LOL! Love your shot Bill!
Superb! The sky is stunning.
Great shot of this plane Bill!!
That sky is fabulous! Nice of them to put a blue-and-white plane out for you to shoot against that dramatic backdrop. A most excellent image!
Superb capture Bill. God Bless.
A very unusual image Bill that i've never seen the like of. Great to see some companies are doing well in these times and it's a nice colour.
Beautiful photo, Bill. When I looked at the photo (before I read your text), I was asking myself - uh,oh, just what's happened to that plane? Then I read the text. I suppose the plane is being completed outdoors due to lack of enough indoor facilities. Must be a tough job with rain and other weather conditions. At least the parts to be added are always exposed to the weather, but... the fellows assembling the plane? I like the varying shades of blue and grey. The angle almost looks like the plane is ready to take to the sky. Keep up the good work! :-)
Cool capture of the sky and the airplane that will someday be in it
Great shot, well caught over the fence.. Useful to me as I have a snap a ANA Aircraft in my files awaiting Company name to be found! lol Now you've saved me the trouble! Now part two! LOL Knackered Bill.. This is English/British slang for broken.. Its not a 'bad' slang word so it CAN be used in polite Company lol There you go.. ;-) Rob
A great close-up, Bill! Beautiful sky as well...the clouds' formation are really superb indeed, as they look almost as though they are descending! Excellent subject and clarity!
great shot
Great capture of this awesome plane and beautiful sky Bill!
Yeah really awesome sky. Nicely composed. :)
I love that very portentious sky, lots of deep tones there... beautiful capture!
Excellent work Bill, I too like the dramatic cloud base here, and the plane looks weird without engines etc
THat is indeed a fabulous shot, Bill !!! THe sky is awesome.
Atmospheric sky, very beautiful!!
Great POV and rich color in this gorgeous shot of the beautiful airliner, contrasted against the beautiful sky, Bill. Am not surprised that the components are manufactured all over the place, just like automobiles nowadays.
We are getting some of these down here too. This one looks great against that marvellous sky.
sky is lovely
Some very heavy and thick clouds... Nice shot. Aloha
An amazing sky. Great plane also.
Very nice!
A gorgeous sky to go with this beautiful plane, Bill! A great capture!
