Not feeling that adventurous today.

I do know how you feel, I was not totally crushed when it departed before dawn and I did not have to fight the roads for a photo or two. Perhaps it is a sign of getting older.

It was taken here in Lincoln on Thursday I believe. The idler car ahead of it has a camera mounted on it aimed back at this special load.

------------------------------------------------------- > Did they count the ones which got wrecked? I was wondering the same thing. But the stenciling does say "10,000th Delivery", not the 10,000th fuselage. I doubt if Boeing the considers the ones that were damaged as "Delivered". Gary |
