Went to visit my daughter and a few minutes after arrival this aircraft made repeated passes over the house. Pretty neat!

Nah! They were showing off for participants in the Boeing Golf Tournament on Snoqualmie Ridge.

Must be near Everett, where they are made (it appears to be a company plane not painted for the end purchaser). If you have not toured the Boeing plant, you should - it is amazing. The day shift has 30,000 workers!

About an hours drive to Everett. Will be leaving in a couple hours for there for the flying of seven WWII fighters, 2 from US, 2 from Germany and 3 from GB. This 787 is a company plane. Thanks for the info.

I saw that plane also and wondered what it was doing. I live near Maple Valley, just a few miles from Snoqualmie Ridge.
Beautiful plane! Nice shots.

The 787 is a beautiful airliner. I live fairly close to where they build them, so I see them often.

Wow! Looks like it was flying low! I might have been tempted to duck! Good shots, Neil!

Not so low - same as the adjacent photo. I didn't know when it would clear the trees on the right and had the zoom in too far. Then backed it off for the next shot.
