How many 787s are still stuck on the runways of Everett? Don't get the Boeing gossip anymore.

I believe there was/is another eighteen or nineteen that were deliverable but significantly overweight--these are called the "terrible teens" in the article. |

Did they keep the first flight aircraft? Hopefully it will end up in a museum. I *think* the first 767 ended up in a museum after years of AOA testing.
Thanks, |

Thanks, 787 #3 went to the Museum of Flight at Boeing Field in Seattle. #'s 1 & 2 went into storage somewhere in SoCal if memory serves. In contrast, the # 1 777 was cleaned up and delivered to an airline customer following flight test. The #1 747 is also at the Museum of Flight after many years supporting flight test. Don't know where the #1 767 ended up. #1 767 |
