Boeing's Farnborough Outlook: ZA003 & RC503

| | Comments () | TrackBacks (0) |


With five weeks to go until the 2010 Farnborough Air Show, Boeing is getting ready to firm its plans for the international debut of the 787 and 747-8. With a final decision yet to be made, company sources say Boeing has penciled in 787 ZA003 along with 747-8F RC503 to represent the company at the largest air show of the year. ZA003 is the third of six 787 flight test aircraft and is outfitted with an partial interior and RC503 is the newly added forth 747-8F flight test aircraft and freshly painted in launch customer Cargolux's new colors.

UPDATE: Boeing has posted a comment on its twitter feed stating that they are "planning" on bringing 787 to Farnborough, however the airframer says that a 747-8F visit "looks less likely".
