  3. A year ago I took video during takeoff from Melbourne #MEL / #YMML on the flight to Los Angeles #LAX / #KLAX. It was my first flight on a Boeing 787 Dreamliner. With a view to the left wing, my video captured the legendary "bendy" carbon fiber wings of the 787 as it began to develop lift for flight. Watch the boundary of the outboard flaps and the aileron start at the horizon and flex upward above it before the aircraft lifts off. avgeek.social/@ikluft/11395255 #Australia #aviation #travel #avgeek

  4. On 5 Feb 2025, which is already a year ago today in Australian time, I started the journey back home. @Leighton dropped me off at the Melbourne Airport #MEL / #YMML where I took a Qantas 787-9 to Los Angeles and an Alaska 737-800 to Portland. Feb 5 was a very long day because, as with any eastbound transpacific flight across the Date Line, I got to do that day twice. avgeek.social/@ikluft/11394825 #Australia #aviation #travel #avgeek
