This is the fourth Boeing 787 made (notated by ZA004), but only the third one to fly. The third aircraft (ZA003) is the one I was able to tour the interior previously and Boeing will be flying it shortly. Today the fourth one got to spread its wings early, taking off from Paine Field.
I wasn’t able to get out today and watch the take off, but Sandy with the Future of Flight was there and got video from above. Currently she is flying over eastern Washington.
