CargoLux Boeing 747-8F taking off for a test flight at Paine Field (N5573S)
Last Tuesday a new Cargolux Boeing 747-8 took off from Paine Field to continue its test flights and unfortunately I wasn’t able to make it. Luckily two awesome guys from Portland, OR, Alex and Russell, were able to get up to Everett, WA in time to watch her fly. Russell got two amazing photos (see larger one of the one above and also a second one) and Alex was able to get a video of the Boeing 747-8 taking off.
747-8 Paint Roll Out
Last week, Boeing showed off its “light” livery on the new Boeing 747-8 Freighter. This new Boeing livery saves time and cost, since it is less complex than their standard livery.
It has a simple white background, with stripe and “8” on the tail. I got a glimpse of the new livery myself while driving by Paine Field (don’t worry my passenger took that picture) and it looks even better in person than it does in pictures.
Check out the photo gallery of additional photos and video of the B747-8 Freighter (I love that wing).
