Have a closer look and you will see no covers etc, ZNB and ZNG are the only non active 787s AFAIK

Now only ZNG is non active, as ZNB had a 20 minute warmup flight on 12th, and after positioning to Sydney in the early hours this morning, is now operating QF11 Sydney-Los Angeles.

ZNG has been in LAX since 24 September, ZNI since 29 December and ZNC since 5 January. ZNC is departing LAX to return BNE in under an hour

Looks like ZNF will be doing the repat flight ex LAX while ZNJ will be heading to LHR ex PER tonight

Interesting taxi pattern for ZNC after arrival in Darwin this afternoon (from Sydney as QF6111). Seems the single hold on approach wasn't enough time to clear it's apron spot.
