At the Museum of Flight, waiting for the 787
Crowd gathers
People stopping on the shoulder of Airport way to watch the 787 land.
People staying out of the rain under the Stratofortress
News chopper. The Duwash Valley airspace was thick with them!
Boeing Fire truck awaits... just in case.
Three news choppers on the west side of Boeing Field.

Better exposure, but one less chopper.
I doubt the designers of the B-47 were thinking "what a great umbrella this will make someday!"
that pinprick of light in the rain is the 787!
Can you see it?
A murmur of anticipation and recognition ripples through the crowd.
There it is!
Closer...
Zoomed in as far as my lens will go…
Can see it clearly now
who put those trees there?
touchdown
Perfect landing. Very smooth.
A cheer goes up
Chase planes overtake and …
overfly the crowd…
