  1. I went for a day trip to Seattle today to try to catch the #Alaska787 #N784HA with Aurora Borealis livery. For the takeoff, I found a spot with better lighting, putting the late-afternoon setting sun behind me. #KSEA #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

  3. I went for a day trip to Seattle today to try to catch the #Alaska787 #N784HA with Aurora Borealis livery. I got it! The weather was perfect except for unavoidable low sun angle of winter. The spot where I was for the landing didn't have ideal lighting and got the shaded side of the plane. #KSEA #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

  5. New #Alaska787 #N784HA is in flight on its entry-into-service flight from Seattle #KSEA to Tokyo Narita #RJAA . (link in previous post) And a friend pointed out that even before that took off, Hawaiian's oldest 787 #N780HA flew from Seattle to Fort Worth #KFTW to be repainted to Alaska. The other 3 are expected to get turns in the paint hangar before Seattle-Rome flights begin in late April. flightaware.com/live/flight/N7 #aviation #business #travel #avgeek #PNW

  7. A new flight plan indicates #Alaska787 #N784HA entry into service flight will be tomorrow (Thu Jan 8) from Seattle #SEA / #KSEA to Tokyo Narita #NRT / #RJAA. So now we can tell the week it spent on the ground at LAX in December was fleet induction and readiness for service, pretty much as expected. Between now and then it has to fly from Boeing Field to Seattle-Tacoma Int'l, a distance of 5 nautical miles (6mi/9km). flightaware.com/live/flight/N7 #aviation #business #travel #avgeek #PNW

  13. "Alaska Airlines orders 110 Boeing jets, a record purchase to boost global service" by KOMO News (ABC Seattle) - Media are starting to post images from Alaska Airlines unveiling of #Alaska787 #N784HA in new Alaska aurora livery for international flights. The press event in a Boeing hangar at Boeing Field #KBFI in Seattle also announced the new order for 105 737 MAX10 + 5 787-10 planes for delivery from 2027 to 2035. komonews.com/news/local/alaska #aviation #business #travel #avgeek #PNW

  15. I hope someone got a better picture than the BFI webcam. By the time we all knew it was coming, there wasn't time for me to get to Seattle in rainstorm-commute traffic. But actually in Seattle the front passed and rain ended before the landing. ADS-B shows it taxied to a Boeing hangar. No surprise. Alaska doesn't have a 787-sized hangar at SeaTac yet. But Boeing has hangars big enough at BFI, considering that was the flight test base for the 787. #Alaska787 #N784HA #KBFI #aviation #avgeek

  17. #Alaska787 #N784HA arrived at Fort Worth Meacham Field #KFTW and then taxied as expected to a paint hangar. When it comes out of the hangar, it should be the first plane in the new Alaska Aurora livery. We don't know when that will be, but probably not before Christmas. Let's keep alert for fellow planespotters when it emerges. #aviation #travel #avgeek

  19. Continuing the saga of #Alaska787 #N784HA, it departed Los Angeles #KLAX as Alaska 9965 bound for Forth Worth Meacham Field #KFTW. There was no public info on what if any work was done during its 6 days at LAX. But Hawaiian has maintenance there. Screenshots of the departure from AirlineVideosLive on YouTube and from ADSB.lol. There is a paint hangar at KFTW, which is my guess where it's going. flightaware.com/live/flight/N7 #aviation #travel #avgeek

The original 4 Hawaiian 787-9s will be repainted in Alaska Aurora before Spring launch of Seattle to Rome & London flights. simpleflying.com/alaska-airlin #aviation #travel #avgeek

  23. Still curious why Alaska Airlines flew #Alaska787 #N784HA to LAX on its delivery. It should go where it gets paint/interior work. LAX seems expensive just to park. Avgeeks said Hawaiian had its first four 787s done at Kelly Field SKF in San Antonio. But Alaska didn't fly it to SKF. I don't know the plan - but one of the 2 bays in the Boeing paint hangar at PDX will be vacated soon by a Lufthansa 787 getting paint/interior. Nonzero chance but unlikely to use PDX after delivery. #aviation #avgeek

  25. A sure sign the test flight of #Alaska787 #N784HA is going well and there was no urgent situation is the test maneuvers they continued to do on the way back to Charleston, including a go-around. They had more tests to do at low altitude. A separate question is who's flying. With the callsign Boeing 319, we know Boeing test pilots are on board. But Hawaiian/Alaska pilots could be doing a pre-delivery acceptance test flight. #aviation #business #travel #avgeek

  27. Sometimes it's hard to interpret what's going on with test pilots flying. Alaska's first 787 in the new livery #N784HA is returning to Charleston #KCHS 787 factory on a test flight. (It hadn't flown in 2 weeks so may be painted now.) It made a turn back to CHS from the middle of a circuit. Did they find a problem and abort? Maybe more likely it passed all planned tests and they decided to head back. If it's delivered soon then everything was fine. #Alaska787 #aviation #business #travel #avgeek
