Lots of “firsts” on my visit to Seattle, and not just dining with a very good friend.

First encounter up-close with 787 LN#1 (and LN2-5 as well).

Followed by the first 777F destined for Emirates Skycargo.

And no trip would be complete without seeing the Queen Of The Skies, who celebrates her 40th birthday commemorating her first flight just two weeks from now on February 9th.

Lots more to come on the 737, 747-8F/747-8I and 787 too.

After tomorrow’s earnings…
