I think these were taken over Moses Lake where Mary is working right now.
When I talked to her from the  WAI conference, she had just come down from a
beautiful night time view from the top of the rudder as she did something
kinda hairy up there.
Her quote was "you would have loved this , Robin"
Cool

If you look closely you can see Brian's hangar down there.
Those clouds at the top...that's Canada :)

I looked for my hangar, but that's Seatac under the plane, Boeing
Field is just under the engines.

Right! What do I know :) Ok I think I see the ferry from Fauntleroy
to Vashon Island on the left. That big building off the end of the runway made
me think that was the Boeing plant.

I wonder about the wing tips. Looks like they did away with the
winglets and added more span. They must have beefed up the spar
or added gust mitigation software. Robin tells me it is a brand new,
stretched, cargo version.
