Allright this is just about Boeing airplanes - not sure if anyone cares here.
The latest all-new commercial airplane to roll out of a Boeing factory is the 787.
There was a huge celebration at the Everett, WA (20 miles north of Seattle, WA) factory on Sunday, July 8th, 2007 - that's 07/08/07.
I got this in the email yesterday:
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 in Seattle, WA.
At 7:07 PM, an Omega Air Refueling Services 707 landed at Boeing Field in front of the crowd (after taking off from Paine Field in Everett, WA).
At 7:17 PM, an AirTran 717 landed.
At 7:27 PM, a Federal Express 727 landed.
This continued until 8:17 PM when an Air France 777-300ER landed.
In the end, the 707, 717, 727, 737, 747, 757, 767, and 777 were lined up nose-to-tail on the taxiway.
It is the first time in history that one of EVERY Boeing 7x7 jet has been in the same place at the same time
(not counting the 787, which couldn't make the flight, of course).
