The sixth and final Boeing 787 Dreamliner to join the flight test fleet has made its first flight from Paine Field in Everett, Washington. It is the second to be fitted with General Electric CEnx Engines. " It's great to have our last flight test airplane join our fleet" Said Scott Fancher,Vice President and General Manager of the Boeing 787 Programme. " We have been focussed on completing the testing required for certification of the Boeing 787 with Rolls Royce engines, because that is the first model we deliver. A great deal of the testing that we've done also applies to the GE engines and won't need to be repeated."
