BBC Boeing 787 Factory Report

On a BBC news feature today talking about the worlds largest building assembling B787s, a nearly finished 787 with AC tail livery painted was shown. Kind of neat to see our home carrier on BBC watching a report from half way around the world.

I'll try to find a video link.

Surely Seattle isn't half a world away from you there in Canada?

Not all 787 are built in Seattle. I believe op was talking about the news report(BBC-British), not the location of the factory.

In which case it is better as it is ad free through iplayer/VPN and doesn't have annoying election ads and government propaganda, unlike Canadian media.
