Interestingly, only three of the 11 787's delivered so far this year have been re-worked planes. They want to have almost all of those delivered by year end, so that pace will have to pick up. Vistara's Line 1049 which is expected to be delivered today would be #4. Having said that, there is no upd...

Jump to postPer Matt Cawby: "ZE315 Hawaiian Airlines 787-9 line 1097 delivery flight scheduled for March 18." It great that he is adding a notation for "delivery flights". It would be cool if he also specifies "customer acceptance" flight date(s). http://paineairport.com/kpae400222...
