Trying to figure out what's going on with a flight diverting to PDX. @JetTip alerted on American 1355, an Airbus A321neo scheduled Dallas #KDFW - Anchorage #PANC, diverting to Portland #KPDX. After flying around some thunderstorms in Colorado, it changed to diverting to Portland, and descended to 12,000ft. In a depressurization, they'd go to 10,000ft. Now flying some racetrack patterns, possibly burning off fuel to maximum landing weight. https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/N431AN/history/20260724/1948Z/KDFW/KPDX #aviation #travel #avgeek

Here are pictures of Boeing 777-9 prototype #2 N779XX flying as BOE002 on its second pass by PDX on a test flight today, doing a touch & go. I'm guessing this probably had an FAA inspector/pilot at the controls due to the late stage of type certification flight testing in progress. This time there was no way for @JetTip to alert me because its flight plan is BFI-BFI. Luckily, I spotted it coming on the Boeing test flights display on my wall monitor at home. #KPDX #B779 #aviation #avgeek #PNW

We had a surprise visit in Portland from Boeing 777-9 prototype #2 N779XX flying as BOE002 (radio callsign "Boeing Zero Zero Two Heavy"). It did a missed approach and then came back for a touch and go, both on Runway 28R. Pics from the first pass here, second pass next post. This late in the type certification program, an FAA inspector/pilot was likely at the controls. #KPDX #B779 #aviation #avgeek #PNW

After a shift in winds, visibility improved at Medford #KMFR, Oregon and Allegiant 62 finished its route from PDX-MFR with one go-around and then a safe landing. Meanwhile northeast of Medford, the webcams at Crater Lake National Park also show some of that smoke. #KPDX #aviation #travel #avgeek #volcano #geology #PNW

Portland #KPDX seems to be the Pacific Northwest's universal flight diversion safe spot lately. Yesterday when thunderstorms popped up in Seattle #KSEA briefly blocking the final approach course, 8 flights diverted to PDX, as well as smaller numbers to Spokane, Bellingham and Pasco. Today, forest fire smoke has dropped Medford #KMFR to IFR conditions. An Allegiant A319 from Vegas to Medford is diverting to PDX. https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/AAY62/history/20260717/1959Z/KLAS/KMFR #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

Spotted on approach to Portland #KPDX: Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner flying as BOE751, newly-painted at PDX in Lufthansa livery. It was returning to PDX from a test flight to Moses Lake, Washington. As long as it's in Portland it's getting pre-delivery work at the Boeing hangar. The manufacturer-temporary registration N2016H is visible in the photo. #aviation #business #travel #avgeek

Video: Condor A330-900neo taking off this afternoon from Runway 28L at Portland Int'l Airport #PDX / #KPDX headed for Frankfurt #FRA / #EDDF. Asking avgeeks what they think of Condor's striped livery ranges from beach towels to prison jumpsuits - but everyone has an opinion.
In the background: Oregon Air National Guard F-15E & F-15EX Eagles on the ramp. #aviation #travel #military #avgeek
