Boeing: Triple milestone

Direct News Source

02-Dec-2016 Our latest 787 delivery can claim three big milestones. It's the first for Air France, the 50th for AerCap, and the 500th Dreamliner to roll off our production lines.

The 787-9 landed today in Paris and will be deployed on Air France's Paris to Cairo route starting in January.

The Air France-KLM Group has ordered a total of 18 787-9s and seven 787-10s, with an additional 12 787-9s leased through AerCap.

Congratulations to Air France, AerCap and to all our 787 employees on this triple milestone airplane. Below you can watch a time lapse video showing the airplane as it went through final assembly at our Everett factory.
