Air NZ Charleston-made 787 Dreamliners

A bit of Air NZ coverage in Herald, and NBR, and I was wondering, "that union-breaking plant in South Carolina, did Air NZ get any 787s off the line?" and the answer is yes, two - NZL and NZM. Not making it a "thing", just an FYI if anyone is interested. They're both equiped with 27X J AFAIK.

And even before that sections were always made there and flown to Everett.
