First United Boeing 787 'Dreamliner' rolls out of paint hangar

Typical United.... Late to the party with a throughly outdated wardrobe!!!!

What does the present Federal Administration plan to do to disrupt production of this aircraft?

Agree completely. At least its not like that TED thing although it was cool in paint

Careful that Sebastian guy may tell you to shut up

Wouldn't it be something if it was possible to please all of the people all of the time.

Wow totally screwed that one up. Way to go United. Now your planes match your service. They both suck.
Who I repeat who got paid to come up with that paint job.

Wow. Totally agree. Beautiful nose, lame paint.

Honestly it's not that pretty a plane, for some reason it reminds me of a giant Caravelle. Probably a pilots dream to fly. That livery is so beyond lame!!! United just being a bunch of cheapskates and not wanting to design a new logo or paint scheme that would've honored two proud airlines.

Fantastic news for UAL(/CO). Also to be used on IAH to LOS. I have a family member who has already been trained as a Cabin Crew member for this aircraft (CO in Houston),

I can't wait to fly in that new generation aircraft, I know Royal Air Maroc ordered one I have no idea if Air Canada ordered some ,,I am sure they did,,I usually fly to my original country Morocco, I hope my next trip will be on 787 dreamliner.

our son worked on brakes and tires on this plane and we LOVE it.

Awesome, need to fly in that soon, I'm a elite united member!

Slick look.

that's a great collection of photos

That is a low profile painting.
But what a beautiful machine.

Take that Airbus !!

Am imagining how good the Ethiopian Airlines paint will look like on the 787!

Oh yes Air Canada's paint is my favourite paint's. It's nice and clean. That's how today's planes should be. I don't understand why people are complaining about the united paint it's sleek clean modern. It makes the 787 look that much more beautiful.

United 787 Dreamliner livestream from Yesterday.

You’ve heard the phrase, “You really had to be there” – typically used in reference to some stupendous event that simply cannot be described in words. Daybreak on July 31 ushered in a truly momentous occasion for United: Our first Boeing 787 Dreamliner rolled out of the paint hangar at Boeing’s Everett Washington facility, revealing the special livery previously shown only through an artist’s renderings.

Our Social Media team was there to stream the experience live on the United Hub. And for those of you who were awake at 5:30 a.m. Pacific time to view the event in real time, our guess is it really did feel like you were there.

I actually like the paint job. It's simple and clean and elegant. The lines of it reminds me of Boeings swish paint job (white with blue line and 787 branding on tail). I'm pretty sure that's no accident. As long as this is specific to only 787s, I think it's pretty nice.

Just because its been delayed doesn't mean its a bad plane. My Uncle happens to be an engineer on that plane and we all take pride in what he dose, so clam down, please!

Thank you for those who like the aircraft as much as I do.

I can't stop yawning.

The *test* A350 is planned to be released in 2013.

For those of you who may be interested lets review some aviation history; Continental and United were both founded, by the same person, Walter Varney (Who also started; Varney Speedlines, to then change it to Varney Airlines) in the same city of Boise, Idaho .. Yes folks, UA did NOT start in Chicago where it is now based .. The original airfield, was once located on the grounds of what is today .... Boise State University .. It was also United who hired the FIRST "Stewardess" in 1930 .. a Registered Nurse, by the name of Ellen Church .. United celebrates is "birthday" on April 6th, having started and had continous service to BOI since 1926.

Beautiful!

Such a beautiful plane wearing such a lousy livery, bet you 10K that in 5 years it will be gone and replaced by something nicer.

96.3% dispatch reliabilty for ANA, that seems low, isn't the industry average around 98.8? I know it's a new model and therefore suxceptible to more unfamilar techinical issues.

such a beautiful airplane, wasted on a crappy airline. I'd stop flying if united was the
only airline.

Love the looks of the plane i'ts beautiful. Boeing has done a great job. As a Canadian this is good news meaning Air Canada is closer to getting there order. Can't wait to fly overseas with that majestic bird!

I agree, a plane that beautiful should not have a paint scheme that boring.

Hope Boeing has ALL the bugs worked out, that ANA has delt with

Agreed United paint

It is cool to see the 787 ready to fly! I do have to say, however, every time I see that livery, I think Continental. I think United and Continental could have come up with something better than slapping a "United" on the Continental livery.

Should have kept the old United Paint scheme.

Still not really enamored by the COA paint scheme since the merger, but she's a beautiful ship nonetheless.

Nice looking plane. Way to go United. Glad to see another company supporting a US Company and not importing.

What's the route its running?

The stripe looks awesome!

That is one awesome bird.

I cant get over how much that gold stripe adds to that livery..
