Flighttesting B787 and B748.

2010-03-02, 22:01

It´s time to discuss the flighttesting of the B787 and B748. The bigger sister got 2 flights
AFAIK and no abnormalities.
The 3 smaller sisters got 67 flights total 209 hours, including one engine failure which forced
them to land at Moses Lake. Something went wrong with the RR-engine.
