As far as an A330 replacement for Qantas goes, my money is on a combination of 797s (if Boeing goes ahead with it of course) and 787s (maybe the -9 with less premium seating to increase the total seat count).

ZNH performed a taxi test today.

ZNH first flight (flight plan filed) as BOE276

Even though my source is showing ZNH, this may actually be ZNG

ZNH has completed its first flights, PAE/MWH 09.58am/12.07pm PST - MWH/PAE 12.08/1.04pm looks like a "touch and go".

Does anyone know the area at Boeing called "EMC" this is where ZNG is at the moment. Its first flight is not till 10 November.
ZNH has completed a second flight this time to the paint shop at Portland.

Everett Modification Center. We were told it is a hangar for pre-delivery work for the 787's.
