Seconds before the doors open, all the FAs from the customer airlines were invited up.

I personally don't like the 787 much
That thing is going to revolutionize air travel, you should actually be in awe of it.
Great shots guys.

I retract my earlier statement (surprise, surprise). While I am not the biggest Boeing fan I am quiet impressed with the 787. I have actually written two papers for science class in the past two years about the aircraft and how it will revolutionize air travel. It's the design really of the aircraft that I feel looks a bit too futuristic, I would have liked to see something more similar in design to the 777 but the 787 does look like a pretty sleek aircraft.
I'm probably just a little soar about the A350. :roll:
at least one of you know what's really important. :D
Tommy's got an editorial up on the site about it:

Otsukare samadeshta (job well done), Boeing!!! I spy my girl from All Nippon Airways, she's pretty cute too! Gotta represent my airline, ANA!
Reminds me when I worked for them last summer....sigh! :cry:
Ya, it's a nice plane, and it will be cool to spot and travel on, no doubt, but to be honest I'm more enthusiastic about the A380. That whale is just WILD! I'll leave it at that; no need to start an Airbus/Boeing war haha. Nice to see something new from Boeing though...

Great work, Mario and Tommy. I'm so glad you two could be there. You are both very deserving for your photography and positive commitment to the aviation community.
Congrats again.

Great editorial Tommy - I was watching the web cast and just watching those doors open brought an exhilerating feeling - being there must have been totally amazing.
I was just reading that JFK will be one of the initial routes for the ANA 787 to increase frequencies. I know the 787 will definitely be seen at JFK, I just wasn't sure when. I also no Northwest wants to re-start JFK-NRT with the 787.
Can you imagine the wingflex on that thing off of 31L?!
Can we id the airlines be the FA's uniforms????
Nice shot of the FAs. Interesting how it seems only one, maybe two airlines sent a male FA which I would say is a bit under-representing their percentage of the global cabin crew workforce. I suspect the PR people were more interested in sending something nice for the predominantly male audience to look at !
I think that by stereotype, more women are F/As than men. I honestly would think that the percentage of women there is probably an accurate representation on the international level. I think only in the US do you see so many male F/As.
