Beoing has finally finished the ground portion of the testing on their 747-8 Intercontinental. The two days of testing were finalized late Sunday. What does this mean for Boeing? Well for starters, it means that the latest 747-8 will finally be ready to start test flight. This was the same aircraft that they unveiled on their webcast. Out of all of the Boeing planes the 747-8 probably stands out the most from the rest of us. Probably because instead of having it painted Boeing blue they decided to painted bright orange. The reason why they decided to paint it orange and not blue was because they wanted to make a statement and they wanted to stand out this new 747-8 Intercontinental means a lot to everybody at Boeing. I would like to extend my congratulations to everybody at Boeing that worked on this aircraft to make it a reality. This means a lot for aviation in general, but mainly it means that people don't have to buy the so-called reliable Airbus aircraft. Boeing has not released. When they will be able to start the testing, but still have to receive the documentations from the US Federal Aviation Administration, and do some taxi testing. I believe that one will define this new 747-8 Intercontinental half way through April by the end of April. It should be flying without an issue. In addition, I believe that they'll be able to deliver the first model in the first quarter of 2012 but the only way that I believe they will be able to get their is if they don't incur any problems that they did with the 787.
Please if you have anything to say back to be either comment below or e-mail me at the e-mail address below.
Thank You Until Next Time
