1st Boeing Dreamliner due for rollout today at Everett
There will be more than 200 journalists ready to watch the newly painted Boeing 787 Dreamliner roll into the factory bay in Everett today . Although it hasn't been without it's problems. This picture is exclusive to Lord Patel of the first plane entering the paint shop c/o Randy Tinseth of Boeing (VP Marketing for Boeing Commercial Airplanes in Seattle) - regrettably he had to turn down the invite to be there.
Production crews are getting ready to beam the event via satellite in nine different languages.
