    Glad you said that. It looks like a painting! Just beautiful.

    What would be neat would be for Boeing to arrange a photoshoot with one each of all of their jetliners, from the 707 to the 787, in the air at the same time. That would also be spectacular!

    Thanks for the photo! Wallpaper material right there. :)

    They may have already done that shortly after this photo was taken: http://blogs.sun.com/ThinGuy/entry/lucky_sevens

    pemberton said that it was a most difficult operationgetting the Bonanza photo plane in line with the Mod 40 at 100MPH, and the 787 at something around 160+ at 12000 and 13 deg. below zero. The Bonanza had the whole right side open ( almost) to give is son an open clear view of the planes. This is quite an accomplishment.
